[:ja]児玉の夏祭(こだまのなつまつり)[:en]Kodama’s summer festival (Kodama noodle festival)[:]

さて児玉の夏祭では地区ごとに所有する鳳輦神輿が八坂神社から各町内へと渡御をします。捻じり鉢巻きにお揃いのカラフルな法被をまとい、真っ白な地下足袋を履いた担ぎ手が渡御しますと町内は活気づきます。渡御は日中と日没後の二度に渡って行われ、日没後には昼間に見られなかった「喧嘩渡御」が繰り広げられることも。

喧嘩渡御では神輿同士を組み合わせてぶつけ合うので、担ぎ手や見物客にとってスリル満点です。担ぎ棒の接触により神輿が急角度になる瞬間にはワーッと歓声が上がります。傾いた神輿の担ぎ棒に乗る人のバランス感覚も素晴らしく、下で押し合う担ぎ手を神輿の上から鼓舞します。また喧嘩渡御は必ずしも神輿を組み合わせて2台で行わなければならないということはありません。奇数でも構わないため、児玉の夏祭では3台の神輿による喧嘩渡御も見られます。

児玉の夏祭は雨天でも決行するので急な降雨に対応できるよう、タオルや雨具を携帯するといいでしょう。ぜひ晴天を祈りつつ足を運んでみてはいかがでしょうか?[:en]Kodama’s Summer Festival is a festival to be held in Honjo City, Saitama. By the way, it is about when the summer festival of Kodama was held, but because the literature and records mentioned are not left, the origin is not clearly understood. However, the summer festival of Kodama is influenced by the Gion faith of Yasaka Shrine and is also called the Gion festival of Yawata.

At Kodama ‘s summer festival, Feng Shu shrine owned by each district will go from Yasaka Shrine to each town. Wrapped in a twisted neckband with a colorful coat of uniforms, the town will flourish if a bearer wearing white white socks is handed over. Congratulations are held twice during the daytime and after sunset, and after the sunset “fight celebration” which could not be seen during the day can be spread.

In fighting fighting, it combines mikoshi together and collides with each other, so it is a thrilling point for the clerk and the visitor. At the moment when the shrine becomes a steep angle due to the contact of the carrying stick, the cheers and the cheers are raised. The balance feeling of the person riding the carrying stick of the inclined mikoshi is also wonderful, and inspires the carrying hands pushing down from above the shrine. Also, fighting fighting does not necessarily have to be done with two units combining shrines. Because odd numbers are acceptable, at Kodama ‘s summer festival, you can also see fighting fighting with three mikoshi.
