Danjiri Festival


 I would like to tell you about the history of the Danjiri festival. Danjiri festival ( video )has been held for 300 years. The origin of the Danjiri festival is the “ Inari festival “. One of leathers who controlled one area in Osaka held the festival at Inari Fushimi shrine where is in Kyoto. The shrine held in the 16th the Genroku era. The festival’s purpose was praying for abundant crops example rice, wheat and bean. The time also developed industry of alcoholic drink in many areas of Japan. There is one episode that people who were concerned with industry of alcoholic drink operated the Danjiri due to carry alcohol. Time went by, generations and society changed. However, the spirit of connecting regions is unchanged until now.
