Kotobiki Hachiman Shrine Grand Festival Fireworks for the First Time in Three Years

Hello, this is Imaya Shizukaen.
Today I got stuck in a traffic jam for the first time in three years (lol)
There are 118 "Chousa" in Kannonji city, and in October, a "Chousa Festival" is held in each district.
This festival, which is held every year from mid- to late October, involves people carrying a large portable shrine called a "chousa," which is about 5 meters tall, through the town.

This year, the Kotobiki Hachiman Shrine Grand Festival will feature a special "Chousa" performance and fireworks.
*2,000 shots from 7 p.m. on Saturday, October 15, 2022

It is a popular festival that attracts not only locals but also tourists from both inside and outside the prefecture.

It's the perfect day for an autumn festival. The town is filled with the sound of drums and excitement.
