    Sakamoto Shrine Kagura dedication

    The Maegō Summer Festival, a festival held at Sakamoto Shrine in August, is a lively event with Sakamoto Kagura offerings, Bon dances, night stalls, and more. Sakamoto Kagura is a form of Yamabushi-style Kagura that has been passed down at Sakamoto Shrine, and legend has it that the Shinto priest Takahashi Uuchi invited Kagura master Zensuke from Fujine, Waga District, to learn it in 1859. It is said that of the 36 performances of Yamabushi Kagura, 12 were handed down to Sakamoto, and 12 each to Fujine and Iwasaki. Date: Early August

    Soft-shelled turtle

    Nishiwaga Town is blessed with abundant hot spring resources and beautiful scenery. This rich hot spring resource is utilized not only for tourism but also for farming soft-shelled turtles. It is said that it takes 4 to 5 years for soft-shelled turtles to be shipped using normal farming, but with hot spring water, they can be shipped after 2 years. Please enjoy the soft-shelled turtles grown using natural energy "hot spring water."
