Sawara-Bayashi (Hayashi) is festival music that has been performed in Japan since before the Middle Ages and is one of our three major musical accompaniments. A World Intangible Cultural Heritage by UNESCO in 2017. The musical score is completely different from today's Western standard one, too.

It’s my first time visit a festival in Japan because when I arrive here Covid started. But I see a lot festival in TV or movies. And when I visit Ayame Festival it’s exactly as what I watch in TV. Especially the background music and the theme is so Japanese. When you want to enter there is a thermometer and a alcohol as Corona Prevention. And you don’t have to pay cause it’s free. But if you want to take a picture from the river you can pay for ¥1000 / person to take the boat. I hope I can visit it again next year. And I really wish for every festival start again like before. Hope these year will be more fun than 2 years before.

Free to enter, but you need to find a parking lot. I park my car at a City parking at the back of "Chosho-ji."

Ayame festival will be held from beginning of June to end of June. You can see a lot of Iris and Japanese traditional boat here. Must try if you come Itako in this season.
