Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine Reisai Festival

The festival at Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine is postponed again this year, but I showed you that there is a musical accompaniment in Reisai Festival.

Until three years ago, the Reitaisai festival in Tsukuda Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine was held in early August, and once every three years, the imperial procession in Miya portable shrine, the lion head shrine, and the boat imperial procession are also held.

During the festival, there are six large banners of 15 (27m) on the former Tsukuda Island.
The pillars and hugs of this large banner are usually buried and preserved at the bottom of Funairi moat, and are dug out and used every time the festival is held.

On Saturday, the lion head shrine is first held in the morning. Here, three pairs of lion heads enshrined in worship hall are placed one pair of males and females, and after rubbing with young people, they go out of the border.



After that, returning to the precincts, the young people grab the lion's head's nose quickly, and they are said to have good luck and compete for the nose rope.

The seven pairs of lion heads are preserved on Tsukuda Island, and the "Kurokoma Lion" and "Ryutora Lion" (designated by Chuo-ku Folk Tangible Cultural Property) are particularly famous. It is said that the lion head in the town corner exhibition hall is the oldest.
The lion head was once carried out not only at the time of Reisai Festival, but also when the epidemic spread in Shimauchi, and was used to drive out evil.
