  • Emperor and Empress Greet Huge Crowds at Tokyo Enthronement Parade
    Emperor and empress greet huge crowds at Tokyo enthronement parade japantimes.co.jp/news/2019/11/10/national/emperor-empress-parade-enthronement Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako waved and smiled from an open car in Sunday’s motorcade which passed through central Tokyo, marking his enthronement before about 120,000 delighted well-wishers who cheered, waved small flags and took photos from both sides of packed sidewalks. Security was extremely tight with police setting up 40 checkpoints leading to the route. Selfie sticks, bottles and banners — and even shouting — were not allowed inside the restricted zone. Residents in high-rise apartments along the road were advised not to look down from their windows or balconies. Naruhito succeeded his father, Emperor Emeritus Akihito, on May 1 following his abdication the day before, and formally ascended the Chrysanthemum Throne in a palace ceremony last month. The parade started from the Imperial Palace at 3 p.m. with the national anthem, “Kimigayo,” being played by a marching band. Naruhito, wearing a tail coat decorated with medals and carrying a brimmed hat, and Masako, in an off-white long dress and wearing a tiara, kept waving from a Toyota Century convertible. The car was decorated with the imperial chrysanthemum emblems and the emperor’s flag during the half-hour motorcade on the 4.6-kilometer-long (3-mile- long) route from the palace to the Akasaka imperial residence in the warm autumn afternoon sun. Naruhito, sitting on the right side on the slightly raised backseat, constantly turned his head to the right and left, responding to people cheering from the opposite side of the street as the motorcade slowly moved at a jogger’s speed.
