2016 Obon Return Rush. Rail and air flights are crowded
Passengers wait for their flights at Haneda Airport Terminal 2 on August 11, 2016, Tokyo, Japan. This year the Japanese government has introduced Mountain Day, a new bank holiday on August 11th, which falls at the start of the Obon Festival period. Many Japanese return to their hometowns in mid-August for Bon which is a traditional festival where the souls of dead relatives return to the family home. Departures peaked early morning in airports, bullet train stations and highways on August 11. (Photo by Rodrigo Reyes Marin/AFLO)
