[Minori] August 8, 2015 18:00

Hello, this is Minori.

 

This year's main festival of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine has also ended successfully.

It was three days from August 1st to 3rd. eve festival was July thirty-first.

 

The main festival is held once every three years.

At the main festival, the lion head and the imperial procession of the portable shrine shrine are held.

There are a pair of dragon tigers and black pieces on the lion's head.

Grabbing the nose of the lion's head is said to be auspicious.

The festival of Miyaide (Kumin Intangible Cultural Property) is crowded with many young people.

※Miyade will be held on the morning of August 1 at the precincts of Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine.

 

I went to see it during the day, but it was very powerful.
