Japan Habba has been conducted every year in Bangalore since 2005 with
the aim of promoting Indo-Japanese relations and
creating an opportunity for people to know more about Japan, get
together, have fun and experience oriental culture.
FREE ADMISSION
Every year, we have an aspect of Japanese culture as the theme of the event. The theme of Japan Habba this year is “"Maneki-Neko: Beckoning Cat". Maneki-Neko is a Japanese lucky charm.
The cat has its paw raised as if it’s waving in good fortune for its
owners and is usually displayed often at the entrance of shops,
restaurants and other businesses.
We hope that this brings good fortune in your life.
