Japan's noisiest festival

This festival is held mainly at Kasuga Shrine KuwanaCity, and is known as ``Japan's Noisiest Festival'' and ``The World's Strangest Festival.''
Up to 40 ornately decorated festival cars are equipped with gongs and drums, and the sound they make all at once is a powerful and heroic festival that overwhelms the onlookers.It is a summer tradition in Kuwana, and is loved by locals. It has been popular for a long time.

During Honraku, the parade goes to Kasuga Shrine, so the sight of the parade along the old Tokaido is said to be fierce and give a sense of bravery.
There is also a historically valuable ceremonial car with carvings by Kazushiro Tachikawa Tomishige and decorations by Koun Takamura, and residents from each district come out to participate, making it the biggest entertainment event held once a year.
It was designated as a national important intangible folk cultural property on March 7, 2007 (Heisei 19), and on December 1, 2016 (Heisei 28), it was added to the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Folk Crafts List as "Yama, Hoko, and Float Festivals." It was written in.
Introducing festivals in Mie Prefecture, including Kuwana, Yokkaichi, and Iga, which are registered as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
