Wakayama Shingu City Oto Matsuri | JAPAN Forward
A team of roughly 2,000 men (referred to as noboriko) clad in white and sporting straw rope wrapped around their waists light pentagonal shaped torches with sacred fire in prayer for a good harvest and family safety. The view that unfolds as the men charge down from the shrine with torches in hand is as the lyrics of the Shingu-setsu song describe, like a flaming waterfall and winding fiery dragon. The festival is known as one of the most lively fire festivals in Japan. On the day of the festival, women are prohibited from the Kamikura-jinja Shrine grounds, but are able to watch the festivities from the path leading to the shrine.

About JAPAN Forward:
JAPAN Forward is a new English-language news and opinion website run by the JAPAN Forward association Inc.
JAPAN Forward aims to present the true face of Japan, as seen from a wide variety of perspectives, to a rapidly-changing world where unpredictability often outpaces stability. Japan has long lagged behind other countries—all of which have their own points of view—in conveying her own take on the world around.
JAPAN Forward sets out to overcome misunderstandings born of linguistic barriers. In covering major news stories in Japan, along with key points of debate, current events, history, culture, and the arts, we hope to deepen the world’s understanding of the Japanese archipelago.
With the 2020 Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games on the horizon, there is a great need for a new English-language medium rooted in solid fact and fully cognizant of the history and culture of Japan and the Japanese people. Our expanding network of influential analysts and foreign experts based in Japan and overseas means that we are continuously improving our ability to bring the truth about Japan to an ever-wider English-speaking audience.
At the helm of JAPAN Forward is an editor who has decades of journalism experience in Europe and the United States, while our editorial team of native speakers hails from policy research centers, academia, journalism outlets, and more. This is the real Japan, in real English.
JAPAN Forward is operated by JAPAN Forward Association Inc., which has also established the JAPAN Forward Supporters Network to allow individual and corporate sponsors to join in our mission to keep Japan moving forward and build our recognition in the Anglosphere.

[Shinto Shrine 3D] Kamikura Shrine, Gotobiki Iwa, Kumano Taisha 神倉神社 ゴトビキ岩
Kamikura Shrine is located in Kumano-Shingu (Wakayama, Japan). A huge rock, so-called Gotobiki Iwa on the top of the mount is the object of worship. Here is one of the best spot to take 3D picture.
和歌山県熊野新宮にある神倉神社。山の上の大岩(ゴドビキ岩)そのものがご神体です。「タカクラジ」という神様をお祀りしています。神武東征の際、熊野の豪族に苦戦していたイワレビコ(神武天皇)に、タカムスビ(タカギノカミ)が「フツノミタマ」という太刀を授けました。その時の使者がタカクラジです

熊野・白浜旅行記 #05 神倉神社の石段は崖と言っても過言で無い編
速玉大社の摂社、神倉神社にも参拝します。
ここは、超急勾配の石段が特徴です。
もうね、崖です。
初めてここに来た時は、後ろにひっくり返って落ちるのではないかと思いました。
こんな嫌な夢を見たことが有る気がしました。
長い石段を登って行くと、御神体のゴトビキ岩があります。
ここから見える新宮の街と、その奥に見える熊野灘。
絶景です。
苦労して登ってきたかいがありますよ。
After going to the Hayatama-taisha, I will go to Kamikura shrine.

Shingu-shi Otou Matsuri (Fire Festival) 2012
Shingu hosts a fire festival on February 6th. Every year, men of all ages spend the day purifying themselves by abstaining from female contact and consuming white foods. Then, once it gets dark, they trek to the top of Mt. Gongen to Kamikura Shrine, the original site of the Kumano Hayatama Grand Shrine. The men are corralled at the top of the shrine and, once everyone has assembled and lit their torches, they open the gates and the men run down all 538 steps to the bottom of mountain. Participants race to the bottom of the mountain - with their torches - in hopes of obtaining peace and successful fertility.
Unfortunately it was pouring rain this year so I could only catch a group of the men from Hayatama going up the mountain, but KumanoWorld uploaded some great videos from last year's festival. Hopefully next year will have better weather!

Oh! Japon été 2018 #13 Le sanctuaire Kamikura-jinja à Shingu
La ville de Shingu est une des étapes clés du Kumano Kodo Un des 3 grands sanctuaires s'y trouve. Mais il y a aussi un autre sanctuaire tout aussi important, le Kamikura-jinja. Se trouvant sur le Mont Gongenyama, il vous faudra monter quelques 500 marches pour arriver au petit bâtiment. La très belle vue sur la ville ne doit pas vous faire oublier l'énorme rocher (le Gotobiki-iwa) qui surplombe le sanctuaire. C'est un rocher sacré et ce serait par là que les Kami (divinités) de Kumano sont arrivés.
Wakayama Oto Fire Festival | JAPAN Forward
Full Story: ????
It turns out that wishing for the cold to subside and a fruitful spring to unfold is a more common sentiment than one might think. At Kamikura Shrine in Shingu city, Wakayama Prefecture, this idea is taken to a whole new fiery level.
Every year on February 6, the Oto Festival takes place to wish for a good harvest and good health. Simply speaking, it’s one of the most lively and famous fire festivals in Japan.
Men all ages – dressed in white with a thick rope tied around their waist – congregate at the shrine carrying a wooden torch.
As the excitement rises, the torches are lit on fire. At 8 P.M. the scene that unfolds is of roughly 2000 brightly lit torches carried by men racing down the 500 steps leading to Kamikura Shrine, making for a blur of warm yellow light illuminating all the surroundings.
