The opening ceremony will be held at the Ume no Sato Center starting at 1 PM, followed by a children's play based on the Soga story and a lecture by Mr. Kensaku Tsuchiya from the Odawara City Cultural Division's Cultural Heritage Section (title to be determined). At 4 PM, the Soga story, featuring the departure of Juro and Goro, will be performed by the nationally designated important intangible folk cultural asset [Sagamihon Theater Shimonakaza] at the Fureai no Sato. At 7:10 PM, a torch procession will head from Soga Shrine to the Ume no Sato Center, and after arriving, the umbrella burning ritual will take place at 8 PM.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":9,"featured_media":183794,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"ep_exclude_from_search":false},"categories":[77],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-190537","travelpost","type-travelpost","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-event"],"blocksy_meta":[],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/190537","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/travelpost"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/travelpost\/190537\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/183794"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=190537"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=190537"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.allway-japan.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=190537"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
