Takachiho Yokagura Night Dance
From November to February, Takachiho's 33-scene Yokagura all-night sacred dance ritual is performed in local farmhouses from dusk to dawn โ enacting the myth of Amaterasu (Sun Goddess) emerging from her cave. Public performances run every night at Takachiho Shrine's kagura hall, presenting eight scenes in a two-hour format accessible to visitors.
