Japan and a Brazilian Samba Carnival together; that’s what happens every summer in Japan’s version of the Rio Carnival in the Asakusa district of Tokyo.

Held on the last Saturday in August, the Asakusa Samba Festival is a carnival that's perfect during a hot Tokyo summer..

This Tokyo style samba festival is a relatively new addition to the Japanese calendar. The first carnival was held on August 29, 1981 to celebrate the long standing ties between Brazil and Japan.

There are usually 30 - 40 dance teams taking part in the Asakusa Samba Festival, with the winning team of the Rio de Janeiro carnival for the year also invited to take part. The dance teams are divided into 3 leagues. The top league is made up of all the professional dancers and musicians who will be competing during the Grand Parade.

One of the reasons for a Japanese Samba Carnival is that Japan and Brazil have had a long connection, with Brazil having the largest population of Japanese outside of Japan because of the over 200,000 Japanese farmers who moved to Brazil to work on the coffee plantations in the early 1900′s.

Asakusa is Tokyo's oldest geisha district — today it still has active geisha tea houses. It's the most traditional Japanese neighborhood in Tokyo. Every August this old neighborhood is rocked by Brazilian dance culture.

It's one of Tokyo's best festivals: the Asakusa Samba Carnival.

The fact that there are multiple summer Samba festivals in Tokyo illustrates the strong cultural ties between Japan and Brazil. No word if there are plans to resume this festival in the future.
