・Takabe Shrine - Hojo-shiki Knife Ceremony and Illumination Viewing
The Hojo-shiki is an elegant ritual passed down as a court event, and it is said that even Oda Nobunaga performed it before heading into battle during the Sengoku period to boost the morale of his troops. The act of skillfully preparing fish using only chopsticks and a kitchen knife without touching it with one's hands is a solemn dedication that offers both culinary skill and spirit to the gods. It continues to captivate many as a precious cultural experience where history and tradition come alive.
・Visit the Sculptures of the Edo Period Genius Artist 'Ihachi'
Takeshi Ihachiro Nobuyoshi, known as 'Nami no Ihachi' (Wave Ihachi), was a shrine sculptor who left behind numerous works at over 50 temples and shrines, mainly in Chiba Prefecture. It is also said that his masterpiece, 'Waves and Jewel,' had a significant influence on Katsushika Hokusai's iconic work, 'The Great Wave off Kanagawa.'
