Be sure to visit Little Tokyo during the Nisei Week activities in August. The parade on August 14 is always great fun and you're sure to enjoy the sights and sounds (and food!) of the Japanese culture all around you: Taiko, dancers, bands, exhibitions and much more!

Here are a few of my favorite events taking place:

Tofu Festival - August 13-14
Samurai 5k Run - August 14
Grand Parade - August 14
