Kakunodate Hiburi-Kamakura , a small New Year event in Kakunodate cho, Semboku City , is a fantastic festival in which gorgeous rings of fire dance in the snow, and the rings of fire that form one after another invite you to the world of a fairy tale on a winter night. Masu.
The festival begins with putting firewood in a furnace made of snow and burning it, then setting fire to a tenburu made of a long tree about 3 meters high wrapped in rice straw, etc., and standing in the snow. I wish you a safe year.
Hifuri involves attaching a rope about 1 meter long to a bale of charcoal, lighting the bale from the stove, holding the end of the rope, and swinging it around your body to pray for good health and the safety of your family.
For the Reiwa Hiburi-Kamakura, we are planning to hold a Hifuri experience for tourists at the following main venues.
In addition, as of January 29, the venues for Reiwa are as follows. (This may change in the future)
