Goshajunsai (Five Shrines Tour Festival)

About this event

Held in Nakatsugawa City, Gifu Prefecture, "Goshajunsai" is a traditional festival that rotates annually among five local shrines in the town: Kuraya Shrine, Oyama Shrine, Minashi Shrine, Wakamiya Shrine, and Koyasu Shrine. In 2026, Koyasu Shrine serves as the host venue. By touring these five community-rooted shrines, the festival provides a precious opportunity to engage with local history and culture. Participants can enjoy interacting with local residents while experiencing the sacred atmosphere of each shrine. Because the host shrine changes each year, checking the specific festival schedule and details in advance is recommended. This festival is regarded as an essential event for preserving local faith and traditions and passing them on to the next generation.
