土崎神明社祭

特徴
　曳山は『神様が宿る所』とされ、伝統的な音楽とともに、町中にただよう『災いをもたらす怨霊や悪霊』を曳山に封じ込め、祭が終わるとすぐに曳山を解体することにより怨霊や悪霊を町から追い払う。曳山行事には、見る人を楽しませるため、曳山を華やかに飾り、見る人を圧倒するような迫力のある人形を乗せ、大きく高くし、歌や踊りを披露する沢山の工夫がある.。

Festival of Tsuchizaki-shinmeisha

Characteristic
Float has been considered as 'the home of gods'. People contain 'floating ghosts and evil spirits who bring us harm' into a float. After the end of the festival, they immediately break the float down so that the ghosts and evil spirits might leave the city. To entertain viewers, they use various ingenuities like gorgeous decoration of the float, overwhelming powerful dolls put on the float, making them bigger so that they can show songs and dances.

Minato-bayashi
The music played during the hikiyama festival is called 'Minato bayashi'. It's similar to 'tenjin-bayashi' of the Hitachi-Oota city, ancient castle town of Seigneur Satake, in Ibaragui prefecture.
