Himeji, Oct 16 (News On Japan) –
The ‘Nada Kenka Competition,’ famend for its fierce clashes between moveable shrines, befell in Himeji, Hyogo Prefecture, attracting massive crowds of spectators.
This autumn pageant, held yearly at Matsubara Hachiman Shrine in Shirahama, Himeji, is thought for its wild and intense nature, which has earned it the nickname ‘Nada Kenka Competition.’
On October fifteenth, the primary occasion of the pageant, the ‘Mikoshi Conflict,’ was held, the place three moveable shrines violently collided with each other.
The extra a shrine is broken, the extra it’s believed to be in keeping with the need of the gods. Males wearing conventional mawashi loincloths shouted battle cries as they boldly smashed the shrines collectively.
Every time a shrine toppled or shattered with a loud crash, the group erupted.
