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.

About the Takahama ShichinenFestival In ancient Japan, epidemics and disasters were believed to be caused by vengeful spirits. 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.

In the Nihon Shoki, he is described as the son of Susanoo-no-Mikoto and Inadahime-no-Mikoto, while in other texts such as the Kojiki, he is regarded as their sixth-generation descendant. According to the Sakichi Shrine Records, the current mikoshi was built in 1803 (Kyōwa 3) by two craftsmen: Kansuke from Sakata Village and Nihei from Tateishi Village. The yamamoto (sponsoring household) for the Nishiyama mikoshi rotates among four districts: Kobi, Hata, Tateishi, and Nakayori. However, every second rotation is always undertaken by the Seijō Magobei family of the Kobi District. This means the mikoshi makes its formal procession through Kosu every 12 years, while the other three districts each receive it once every 36 years.AddressGoogle Map Check with Google Maps AccessParkingBusiness HoursAdmission FeeRegular HolidayPhone NumberURL SNSHow to UseThis digital map provides the following features.(Detailed usage instructions are available at each spot.)Parade and performance venues for the Shichinen Festival will appear as map spots when the "Otabisho & Honjin" category is selected (on PC, the selection button is at the top left).

To calm these spirits, people held rituals known as matsuri, offering prayers and performances as acts of devotion. The Takahama Shichinen-Matsuri is one such festival, with a history spanning over 450 years. Rooted in the principles of Yin and Yang and the twelve signs of the Japanese zodiac, the zodiac is divided into two groups: the first six signs—from the Rat to the Snake—are associated with Yang (positive energy), while the latter six—from the Horse to the Boar—represent Yin (negative energy). The energies of Yin and Yang are believed to peak in the Year of the Snake (6th sign) and the Year of the Boar (12th sign), which are marked as special festival years. Because of this cyclical pattern, a "festival year" occurs every seventh year—hence the name Shichinen-Matsuri, or "Seven-Year Festival." During this vibrant week-long celebration, the town comes alive as locals parade through the streets with large portable shrines (mikoshi) and elaborately decorated floats (hikiyama), accompanied by traditional performances such as Tachifuri (sword dancing), Kagura (sacred music and dance), Otaue (rice planting ritual), and Niwaka (folk comedy skits).AddressGoogle Map Check with Google Maps Access9 minutes walk from JR Wakasa Takahama StationParkingPlease note that no parking is available during the festival period.Business HoursAdmission FeeRegular HolidayPhone NumberURL https://www.town.takahama.fukui.jp/page/sanngyousinnkou/p008295.html SNSHow to UseThis digital map provides the following features.(Detailed usage instructions are available at each spot.)Parade and performance venues for the Shichinen Festival will appear as map spots when the "Otabisho & Honjin" category is selected (on PC, the selection button is at the top left).
