"Kasa-fuku" is one of the hanging decorations that has been passed down in Sakata since the Edo period. The custom of dedicating them to local shrines and temples, wishing for the prosperity of descendants and the happiness of children, remains, and its origins can also be seen in the procession of the Hie Shrine's annual festival, "Sanno Matsuri." The Kame-kasa-hoko (turtle umbrella float) of the festival is made by craftsmen from Kyoto, but the Kasa-fuku dedicated to shrines and temples are handmade by local women. The Sakata Chamber of Commerce and Industry Women's Association has shed light on the custom of Kasa-fuku, which was recently disappearing, and has connected it to the transmission of culture and town revitalization.
