Takachiho Ranch

Taiko Performance in Nobeoka (January 1st: Hatsumode)

Visit my blog for more information:

I stopped by at Imayama Shrine (今山神社) in Nobeoka City on my way back from Takachiho.
Nobeoka is between Takachiho and Miyazaki City in Miyazaki Prefecture.
January 1st is the busiest time for shrines in Japan as people are doing their hatsumode (1st shrine visit of the year).
I was lucky to see this New Years Taiko performance!
