[4K] Fukuoka Japan - Famous Japanese Shrine Walk During Tanabata (Star Festival) | Miyajidake Shrine

Hello everyone, and welcome to another walk! Today, I was lucky enough to find time and visit a popular Japanese shrine, called Miyajidake Shrine, during Tanabata (Star Festival). Tanabata has an interesting story surrounding it, and shrines will take on a new look for this special day. Please let me know if you enjoy this walk. I would like to show more cultural places around Japan as well. Tanabata (Japanese: たなばた or 七夕, meaning "Evening of the seventh"), also known as the Star Festival (星祭り, Hoshi matsuri), is a Japanese festival originating from the Chinese Qixi Festival. It celebrates the meeting of the deities Orihime and Hikoboshi (represented by the stars Vega and Altair respectively). According to legend, the Milky Way separates these lovers, and they are allowed to meet only once a year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month of the lunisolar calendar. The date of Tanabata varies by region of the country, but the first festivities begin on 7 July of the Gregorian calendar. The celebration is held at various days between July and August. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tanabata Miyajidake Shrine is primarily dedicated to Okinagatarashi Hime no Mikoto (another name for Empress Jingu) and attracts over 2 million worshippers a year who pray for commercial success, good luck, and to ward off adversity. The shrine conducts the “Tsuitachi Mairi” ritual on the first day of each month, beginning the First Prayer Festival at midnight. On these days, the paths leading to the shrine are lined with souvenir and food stalls open until late at night, drawing many worshippers all day long. Some of the shrines features are its regal, five-ton sacred straw rope, its giant bass drum, and its great bell, which are collectively known as “the Three Number Ones” and are quite famous. Worshippers hoping for a little extra luck should try visiting each of the eight shrines on the grounds, a tradition known as “Oku no Miya Hachisha Mairi”. Cherry blossoms, irises, and other seasonal flowers bloom throughout the year, and there are the Minkamura Natural Park and small petting zoo with horses, ponies, and goats that children will love! Don’t miss the sight of the city stretching to the ocean from the top of the stairs as you descend! https://visit-fukuoka-japan.com/todo/... ▼Google Maps▼ https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?... ►Equipment List◄ Camera: https://amzn.to/2ReHuVR Microphone: https://amzn.to/33lexwS Recorder: https://amzn.to/3ilufyq Memory Card: https://amzn.to/3it3GHz Portable Battery: https://amzn.to/35qTKe3 As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
