Heroic scenes searing the night sky
The Hana Festival is a traditional and artistic festival which has continued for more than 700 years and is designated a national important intangible folk cultural property.
The Tsuki area's version of the festival enjoys an expansive venue with wondrous decorations, drawing in many visitors each year. It has also established a reputation for the value it places on tradition and respect it shows for the ancient religious ceremonies.
The demons jump high at the mountain-like bonfire, in a spectacle of power and wonder during the Masakari portion of the festivities. And don't miss the Sakaki Oni demon's mask or the dancers as they whip steaming water at the crowd from straw brushes during the Yubayashi purification custom.
