Ceremonies to honor the souls of the war veterans enshrined at Gokoku Shrine are held annually on the last consecutive Friday, Saturday and Sunday to fall in May.
From a visitor's point of view the highlight is the Miko-odori in which 100 young women maidens dressed in scarlet hakama perform several dances (Saturday May 29, 18:30).
On Sunday, there is a childen's sumo tournament (a particular favorite among the souls of fallen soldiers) from 10am and there are kagura performances in the evening from 7pm.
It gonna be a such a great night!!You shouldn't miss it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
