Stone raising festival

Event Overview

A long time ago, Fuji Owari's mountain lost to the "back-and-back" with the neighboring Motoyama. There, the priest of Fuji Owari ordered the villagers to carry the stones to the summit and raise the mountain higher. And the villagers who piled the stones were given wishes and given the deed to be happy. After this, the "stone raising festival" is for young and old to carry large and small stones to the summit in families and groups. It is reported that if you participate, you can receive deed from God.
