Known for its beautiful shape, Mt. Aoba is the symbol of Takahama and is also called the "Wakasa Fuji." With its twin peaks—East Peak (693m) and West Peak (692m)—the mountain’s appearance changes depending on where you view it from. The sunset over Mt. Aoba, as seen from Takahama, has been selected as one of Japan’s Top 100 Sunsets, and the combination of Wakasa Wada Beach’s clear waters with the mountain's silhouette is a view worth capturing. Located at the border of northern and southern plant habitats, Mt. Aoba is home to a rich variety of wild plants and is known as a "treasure trove of medicinal herbs." The mountain also has a spiritual history as a training ground for Shugendo practitioners. With its diverse hiking trails, it’s a popular destination for both nature lovers and hikers.

To appease these spirits, festivals known as “Goryoe” were held. The Takahama Shichinen Festival is one such tradition. Based on the Chinese zodiac, the years from Rat (子) to Snake (巳) are considered Yang, and Horse (午) to Boar (亥) are Yin. The years of Snake and Boar—representing the height of Yin and Yang—are designated as “Festival Years.” The festival is held every seven years, including the festival year itself. Over a span of seven days and nights, the festival showcases elegant rituals such as mikoshi (portable shrine) processions, hikiyama (parade floats) performances, sword dances, kagura (sacred music and dance), rice planting ceremonies, and improvised plays.
