Omae Shrine "Nagoshi Festival"

大前神社「夏越祭」
The "Nagoshi Festival" at Omae Shrine is a significant event marking the end of summer in Moka. Participants can pass through the thatch ring with Shinto priests in the evening to cleanse themselves from half a year's misfortunes. This ritual is open for everyone to join, with a particular encouragement to visit with family or friends. The festival takes place at Omae Shrine, conveniently accessible by public transport or car. The highlight of the festival is experiencing traditional rituals while getting in touch with the rich local culture. Participants refresh their body and mind by passing through the thatch ring, preparing for the next half year. Furthermore, the beautiful surroundings and the coolness of the evening create a special atmosphere. As the event is only held for a limited period, it's a special event that can only be experienced now. Be sure to invite family or friends, as it's especially worth visiting. Walk together through the thatch ring and enjoy the serene atmosphere of the shrine.
