About Lantern festival
※Photos are from the Kashima Jingu Shrine official website
The lantern town (lantern festival) is a festival held on the first day of the Shinko festival, and the Shinko festival is held every September 1 and 2 every year.
On the day, from lunch in the morning, more than 10 lanterns will depart from Kashima city area aiming for Kashima Shrine.
And in the evening, the lanterns gathered at the Omotesando in Kajima Jingumae walked around bravely, and at the end it was a powerful festival where fires were fired by fired trees set in Jingu Shrine premises!
It is said that it is auspicious to take this lantern, but I think that it is good to be lucky.
Because it will injure if impossible ....
Also during this Shinki festival period, other than the lantern town, five mountain cars around Kashima Shrine reverberate festival music festival
If you watch lantern festival
Omotesando in Kashima Jingu is the best
It is a bit narrow width because it is lined up with Food stalls, but I think that the sense of presence is the best
Also, as there is plenty to burn the last lantern, we recommend that you go after seeing Omotesando
※ When you see small children etc., sparks will fly, so please be careful.
