Overview

Dressed in original costumes and riding a white horse as the Shogun, the procession of 20 people, including extras, will parade through the Ōdono area, which retains the historical atmosphere to this day.

Please enjoy Yamaguchi City, which has been selected by The New York Times as one of the “52 Places to Go in 2024.”
