This is a unique festival that has its roots in the incident where the footprints of the lost and rare beast Gatagon were discovered. The Nanya Doyara Nagashi Dance, which has been passed down in this region since ancient times, will be performed throughout the shopping street, and a float carrying a giant Gatagon egg will appear as a sacred object. In addition, fun events such as Bon dance with prizes are held, and the festival ends with a fireworks display.
