Facility Introduction
At the Takayama Festival Yatai Kaikan Hall in the grounds of Sakurayama Hachiman Shrine, 11 authentic Yatai (nationally designated Important Tangible Cultural Properties) that will be pulled at the Autumn Takayama Festival (October 9th and 10th) are exhibited and changed three times a year.
Every year in March, July, and November, the four floats are rotated and displayed together with the permanently installed mikoshi (portable shrine). The mikoshi weighs two and a half tons and is said to be the largest in Japan.
The Takayama Festival is held twice a year, in spring and autumn, and the shrines, regions, and Yatai that hold the festival are completely different. The spring festival is held at Hie Shrine, and the autumn festival is held at Sakurayama Hachiman Shrine. The Yatai on display at the Takayama Festival Float Hall are the ones used in the autumn Takayama Festival.
