The rice planting festival of Mt.

Event Overview

Mount Subodhi is a mountain located in the southern part of Buzen City, Fukuoka Prefecture, at an altitude of 782m. It was a holy site of the ancient Buzen Shugendo, and the Kokutama Shrine flourished as its center. The rice festival is one of the largest festival events of Mount Subodhi, called the "Matsukai", and is a function of the prefecture-designated intangible folk cultural relics of the Hōnen-yo celebration, where the works of agricultural work are performed along with the sacred song. It takes place in a square in front of the Kunitama Shrine's Nakamiya, and at the end of the performance, all participants make a round of the inchi to pray for a good harvest in autumn. There is also a kagura dedication and a kamikoshi cruise. The car was parked near the 7th station of Mount Subodhi, about a 20-minute walk to the venue. * Contents may be changed or canceled depending on the situation.
