Kumano Kodo Center: Temporary Exhibition “Kumano Festivals Edition – Kimoto Festival”

2014/10/20 Monday Seminars and Events

2014年11月3日まで尾鷲市で企画展「シリーズ熊野のお祭り 木本祭り」開催中

Kumano Kodo Center – Temporary Exhibition

“Kumano Festivals Edition – Kimoto Festival”

 We will present the most important festival in Kimoto Temple, the Kimoto Festival, that is held every Autumn since year 13, Keicho Era (1608).

One of the main attractions in Kimoto Festival are the dashi (kind of float) that come from different regions and parade through the neighborhood. It is possible to see them either the day before at Yomiya Matsuri, and in the festival day, at Reitaisai (the most important annual ritual of a temple). Another attraction is when the participants carry together the “Abare Mikoshi” and the residents throw sake on it meaning the purification. Then, the mikoshi is taken to the beach to be purified in the seawater. This ritual is known as “Hama Katsugi”. In addition, another attraction we recommend is the “Roppo Gyoretsu”, formed by 30 students from chuugaku. This attraction has been named as a Cultural Heritage of Kumano and it is one of the main attraction in the festival.

Date: Until November 3, 2014, Monday (holiday)
