Zuiki Festival
Zuiki festival is held at Kitanotemmangu shrine from Oct 1st to 5th!
The enchanting event would be seeing the portable shrine with dry food:)
Originally, this festival began in 10 century for showing our appreciation for adequate harvest.
So we decorate the portable shrine with dry food to do it.
You could reach there by taking either bus no.50 or 101 and getting off at Kitanotemmangu-mae!
It might be one of Japanese historical festivals, so why not popping there and feeling it!?;)
ずいき祭が、北野天満宮にて10月1日から5日の間で開催されます!
一番魅力的な行事は、乾物つきのお神輿をみることでしょう:)
もともと、この祭りは10世紀にその年の十分な収穫に対する感謝の気持ちを表すために始められました。
そのことから、このようにお神輿に乾物を飾りお祝いをするそうです。
北野天満宮には、バス50番または、101番に乗って頂き、北野天満宮前で下車して頂ければいけます!
この日本の歴史的であろうお祭りに、参加してそれを感じてみてはいかがですか?
