The Sennukigu Shrine portable shrine is said to be the highest peak in the existing Edo portable shrine and one of the most important cultural masterpieces as an ornamental mikoshi.
During the festival, I was able to see and worship at the portable shrine warehouse.
The roof, which is said to be the face of portable shrine, is decorated with a phoenix that spreads its wings dignifiedly, and the decoration of the blowback on the roof is wonderful.

When I was carried, I am trying to make the roof where my eyes go first look fine.

The torso is made to imitate the shrine's shrine hall. imperial procession, who will take over the gods of main hall, and in Reisai Festival, will be taken over portable shrine and cross the shrine parishioner area.
It is said that yoro, a decorative item originating in India, is attached and decorated beautifully, and also plays the role of a curtain. There are also ornamental metal fittings that are hidden by yoro and can hardly be seen.
We are particular about the shape and balance of the "roof", "main body (torso)" and "pedestal", and there is an aesthetic of Edo kid who shakes his arm on decorations that cannot be seen when carrying, and the tradition of Japan is condensed.
