Aibetsu Town , Hokkaido
Oct. 25, 2023
On October 22, a briefing session for Hokkaido stone townspeople was held at a brewery in Aibetsu Town, and more than 100 visitors visited. Hokkaido stone, a natural crystal of the organic compound benzoperylene, is a rare mineral that fluoresces beautifully when irradiated with ultraviolet rays, and was registered with the International Mineralogical Union in January this year. At this briefing session, which was open to the townspeople for the first time, a member of the research group that discovered Hokkaido stone talked about its rarity and characteristics, and visitors actually confirmed the fluorescence of Hokkaido stone while shining ultraviolet light. Hokkaido stones discovered in Aibetsu Town and Shikaoi Town are currently open to the public at Aibetsu Town Hall. It will be a very valuable exhibition, so please take this opportunity to take a look. ■Exhibition location: Aibetsu Town Hall 1F ■Exhibition Hours: 8:30 a.m. ~ 5:15 p.m. (weekdays only)

[Scattered cherry blossoms] 【Scattered cherry blossoms】 Cherry blossoms are reminiscent of ``short-lived'' because their flowers fall quickly. Because the samurai were determined to win the war, family crests associated with scattering, ephemeral, and bad luck became distant. Cherry blossoms are reminiscent of "short-lived" because they bloom quickly. Since the samurai are on the verge of victory, the family crest, which is associated with scattering, ephemeral, and ominous, is estranged.

Mikoshi Town Gyotoku At this time of year, festivals are held in various places in the local Gyotoku! And Gyotoku was protected as the tenryō of Tokugawa Ieyasu. Gyotoku, which has a deep history, is both a little-known hidden gem spot and a place ♪ to feel autumn. [40% of the mikoshi in Japan] is Gyotoku mikoshi! !️ In 1991 (1991 (Heisei 3)) in Koto-ku, Tokyo The headquarters mikoshi of Tomioka Hachimangu Shrine was made as a mikoshi famous as the best golden mikoshi in Japan! It is a gorgeous mikoshi also called a billion yen mikoshi, but when this mikoshi was delivered, it seems that the funato shrine was reproduced spectacularly! Why don't you come ☺️ and see the mikoshi this autumn season?

The Oi Shrine Grand Festival is also called the "Obi Festival" and is a festival in which the god of Oi Shrine returns to the old shrine site (inn) once every three years. Today, for three days including the second Sunday in October, a gorgeous festival is held in the town of Shimada where dainu, daimyo processions, Kashima odori, street stall dances from 1st Avenue to 5th Avenue, and ground dances are held. Especially on the last day, all of them form a large procession together with the mikoshi procession, and they slowly parade for a whole day for a round trip of about 4 km from Oi Shrine to the inn. Due to the appearance and swing of the dainu at this time, as well as the unique form of Kashima Odori, the obi festival has come to be counted as one of the three strange festival in Japan. In addition, since the Edo period, first-class entertainers from Edo have been invited to choreographed dances in each town, Nagauta, and shamisen, and Nagauta in particular is also called "Nagauta Festival" because the iemoto of each school competed for throat.
