Takachiho-no-Yokagura is a sacred Shinto ritual that has been dedicated to Ujigami-sama (the local guardian deity) by various settlements from November to February since ancient times. For those who cannot attend the full seasonal festivals, four representative episodes are performed nightly from 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM at the Takachiho Shrine Kagura-den Hall throughout the year.     First three episodes (The dance of Tajikarao, Uzume, Totori) are based on Iwato Mythology. The dance of Goshitai is a dance of a married couple (Izanagi and Izanami) living happily together. It expresses a prayer for a rich harvest, happily married, smooth delivery and pregnancy.   Complete Your Spiritual Night in Takachiho For our Customized Private Tour guests, we are happy to assist with your Takachiho-no-Yokagura ticket reservations.
