[Kasai City] Amibiki Hachiman Shrine and a Noh stage that retains its original appearance

According to the Yawata Shrine history timeline, it was enshrined in 1505, and the main shrine was built in 1605. The Noh stage and Amibiki Lion Dance are designated as city-designated folk cultural properties. The stage was built in 1685 and is a simple structure that, apart from the roof, has remained unchanged for about 300 years. Even now, the lion dance "Taniwatari" is performed once every three years during the autumn festival. This shrine continues to carry on the recreational activities enjoyed by the common people in the past.
