2011 October 15th (Sat) 6pm~

Autumn leaves in Miyajima

Autumn is coming to Hiroshima very soon. It's been chilly these days.　Easy to get sick as seasons change. Please take good care of yourself.

Kikka Festibal will be held in Miyajima in October. This festival is for offering chrysanthemum flowers to Japanese god.
There will be court dance performance.

The court dance and music introduced into Miyajima from Kyoto by Kiyomori Taira is dancing by the gagaku. Around 20 pieces including "Ryo-oh", "Nasori" "Manzai raku" and "Engi raku" are still handed down to Itsukushima Shrine from the latter period in the twelfth century.
