Festival of the Valley Jizo Deity
谷地地蔵尊祭礼
This is the festival of Jizōson, which has been celebrated since ancient times in the urban area of Gosen City, where a legend remains: "If the festival is not held, there will be a flood." It is held every year on July 23rd within Yoshizawa 1-chome, and is cherished and continued by local residents. On the day of the festival, a variety of stalls line the streets, making it a small-scale festival that can be enjoyed by both children and adults. Although it is a simple local festival that has been passed down in the area, it is held on the same date every year, so there are people who look forward to visiting on this day.
