DSC07842ELS'.jpgDSC07839RS'G.jpg On November 23, the autumn festival "Shinrensai" was held at Namiki Inari Shrine (Tsukiji 6).

Niiname-no-Matsuri is a festival to appreciate the autumn harvest that has been held at shrines nationwide, including the Imperial Palace since ancient times.

Nigori sake, a rice brewery located in the vicinity of Chita Kobo, was rebuilt by the Kaga lion head wood sculptor Chita Seiun in Hakusan City, Ishikawa Prefecture, and was built by renting a rice field near Chita Kobo.

On the grounds, the precious Nigori sake "Koho" with limited production is served to worshipers.

In addition, the sake "Namishi" brewed from the rice of the sacred rice field will be offered to the summer festival in June of the following year.
