  • Nationally Selected Intangible Folk Cultural Property "Himeshima Bon Dance"

Himeshima Bon Odori is said to have derived from the Nembutsu dance of the Kamakura period, and consists of both traditional and original dances. Traditional dances include the Kitsune Dance, Aya Dance, Zenidaiko, and Sarumaru Dayu, and are passed down by local children and the general public. New original dances are constantly being created, entertaining spectators with their humor and elaborate costumes.

  • Watch the highlight of the Yamaga Lantern Festival, the Thousand Lantern Dance, from the grandstand

- A fantastical world with countless golden lanterns swaying in the light

  1. The Yamaga Lantern Festival dates back to the Muromachi period, when the emperor was prevented from traveling by fog and the people of Yamaga welcomed him with torches.
  2. One of the highlights is the "Sennin Toro Odori." A thousand women in yukata robes dance in a circle, carrying lanterns called "kintoro" on their heads. The flickering ring of lights and the graceful figures of the dancers transport viewers to a fantastical world.
