Kamakula in Rokugo

Event Overview

An event that combines a good harvest, a prayer for safety and prosperity, an exorcism that removes bad harvests and misfortunes, and an "annual fortune-telling" that divests the bad luck of the year. Takemuchi, which will take place on the night of the last day, is a brave festival that divides the town into north and south to fight with bamboo, and it is reported that if the Union army wins, the value of rice will rise if the South army wins. It has a history of more than 700 years and has been designated as a National Designated Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property. Image courtesy of Misato Town
