Held annually from October 7th to 9th, it is a grand festival held by the entire town as the autumn grand festival of Suwa Shrine, the tutelary deity of Nagasaki. Its origins are said to date back to 1634. It is said to have begun when two courtesans offered the Noh song "Komai" to the gods. Since then, the offerings have incorporated many performances with an exotic atmosphere influenced by Southern Barbarian culture, forming a unique culture unique to Nagasaki. In 1979, it was designated as a Nationally Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property. It is one of Japan's leading traditional events, blending elements of history, performing arts, and international exchange. In addition, the Nagasaki Traditional Performing Arts Promotion Association was established to ensure the smooth operation and promotion of "Nagasaki Kunchi," excluding Shinto rituals, and to preserve and nurture the performances (dashimono). It also contributes significantly to the local economy and tourism promotion. #DVD #Folklore #Festival #Nationally Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property #NagasakiKunchi #SuwaShrine #OfferingDance #Ryuo #KokkoDesho #NanbanShip #TojinShip #OrandaManzai #GoshuinShip #Kawafune #WhaleSpout #NagasakiTraditionalPerformingArtsPromotionAssociation #JapaneseTraditionalCulture #LocalPerformingArts
