Samurai Dance - Japan

Have you ever seen a Samurai dance? Watch for the Japanese warrior dancing in the middle in a traditional Japonese costume.

The Samurai were the military nobility in Japan. Samurai were bound by a code of honor and were expected to set an example for others. Samurai served their lords and helped them in battle. They existed for centuries in Japan, up until the late 1800's.

The other young dancers are dressed in traditional Japanese costumes and are performing in a city center. Japan is a country of islands in Asia that has a very interesting history and unique culture.
