Sashibu Shrine

Sashibu Shrine

Event Overview

The 200-kilo-heavy Shijihua was decorated with gold, navy blue, red, silver and green paper flowers, with 70-odd bamboo supports dripped like weeping cherry blossoms on a log manning that is more than 5m high. A man dressed in a white-waged dako (zōban) behaves to create an economy with sake, carries the Shinto-hwa where the god dwelled on each flower, and works around the road to the shrine while singing a song. The appearance is exactly Japanese beauty itself. The breath of ancient traditions and culture trembles the mind of the viewer. Shijihua, which is said to have a history of more than 400 years, is an intangible folk cultural treasure of the city of Izumo along with Shijimai. * Because the area is expected to be crowded, use public transportation.

Aoshibagaki Shinto

Prior to the descent of the heavenly grandson, the god of Takaenhara sends an errand that the country of Izumo, which is reigned by the great god of power, should be reigned by the heavenly grandson. In response to this, the great god of power asks for an answer from the god of the child, "I can't decide with my own existence." the lord of the gods, who was fishing in Miho, immediately replied, "This country should be dedicated to Tenson," and when he built Aoshibagaki in the sea, he hid himself in it. Aoshibagaki Shinto is a Shinto ritual derived from this myth, in which Ujiko, who entered the sea for a year and played a sakisai, boarded two ships, each decorated with a large fishing flag and a sakaki, marking the climax of the festival that spans a week.
