TOKYO - Tens of thousands of people gathered on Saturday at a national festival to celebrate the enthronement of Japan's Emperor Naruhito with dancers and pop stars offering jubilant performances.
The festival came after Naruhito completed his ascension to the Chrysanthemum throne on October 22 in a ceremony steeped in the traditions and grandeur of a monarchy that claims 2,000 years of history. On Sunday, the royal couple will parade in a convertible car along a 4.6km route from the palace to their residence in central Tokyo to mark the enthronement.
