This time, I would like to introduce the water festival at Kyoto Kifune Shrine.
From JR Kyoto Station, transfer to the Nara Line, transfer to the Keihan train at Tofukuji, get off at Demachiyanagi,take the Eizan Electric Railway Kurama Line, get off at Kifuneguchi, take the Kyoto Bus, get off at Kifune Shrine, and walk for 6 minutes to Kifune Shrine.
The water festival starts at 10:00 on July 7th.
The Water Festival is derived from the ancient rain begging ritual and is a festival that prays for rain and the blessings of sunny weather.
After the tea dedication ceremony, a dance performance is performed, and a knife ceremony is performed.
Enjoy the strict festival.
