Tsuyazaki Gion Yamakasa
津屋崎祇園山笠
The magnificent floats of the three "nagare", accompanied by the fervent shouts of men in loincloths, race through the town of Tsuyazaki.
The sight of the magnificent three floats of each "nagare" running past with the passionate shouts of the men dressed in shimekomi is a spectacle to behold. The day before ”Oi-Yama", "Hadakamairi", naked pilgrimage, is held.
At 9:00, three Yamakasa floats of the three "nagare" depart from the Namiori Shrine and run through the Tsuyazaki Sengen area to the signal of the first drum. The town erupts in enthusiasm and excitement as the crowd applauds and cheers.
