Kagura of the Sole

Kagura of the Sole

Event Overview

Kagura is a song or dance dedicated to God, wishing for a good harvest or a good fishing ritual to ward off the disease. The Kamakura Ise Daijingu Kagura, which was designated as the "Chiba Prefecture Intangible Folk Cultural Property" in 1965, has been running since the 6th year of Hōryaku (1756) in the mid-Edo period. Every year on the last Saturday and Sunday in March (around 11-17 o'clock each day), we pray for the fertility of the five grains in the "12-seat dance" such as Uzume, Okame, and snapper fishing. With rich ancient performances of drums, drums and flutes, Kagura is further enhanced.
