[:ja]神田祭(かんだまつり)[:en]Kanda festival[:]

[:ja]神田祭は東京都千代田区で開催されるお祭りです。開催の神田明神では祭り期間中、ずっと人足が絶えず境内は人でいっぱいです。その規模の大きさと歴史から「日本三大祭り」の一つに含まれており、京都祇園祭と大阪天神祭と肩を並べています。さらには深川祭り、山王祭と同じく「江戸三大祭り」でもあるんですよ。気になる絢爛豪華な神田祭の起源については資料が不十分なため、詳しいことは分かっていません。しかし一部文献から徳川家康が神田大明神の神徳により、悲願の天下統一を果たせたことが分かっています。そのことから徳川家康の崇敬を集め、徳川家の後ろ盾を得て神田祭は発展を遂げました。こうして江戸時代以降には神田祭は盛大に行われるようになり、華やかな山車の巡行が行われました。当然江戸城内への巡行も許され、将軍と大奥の上覧も行われたことから、山王祭同様に天下祭の称号を得るに至ったのです。

さて神田祭大祭は隔年の西暦奇数年に開催されまして、直近では2017年、さらに2年後の2019年に予定されています。神幸祭では一の宮、二の宮、三の宮、獅子頭山車の豪華な行列が巡行し、神田明神一帯は人々で混雑します。氏子地域が108町あるので、神職と担ぎ手は距離にして約30キロも行列を成して進みます。神幸祭行列の人数は付け祭を含めると数千人規模になるのだそう。さすが天下祭の称号にふさわしいお祭りですね。

そして神幸祭翌日の神輿宮入は外神田、日本橋一、岩本東神田、神田中央、大手丸の内などの地域から、山車神輿が大小合わせて約200台も集結します。この日は至る場所に貫禄ある神輿や山車が巡行しているので、いくつに出会えるか町歩きをしてみるのも楽しみ方の一つですね。神輿と山車の巡行が終わりますと、金剛流薪能の披露と表千家家元奉仕による献茶式が厳かに行われます。ゆったり優美な舞が多い薪能ですが、神田祭で奉納される金剛流薪能は時に激しく、あるいは穏やかなど変化に富んでいます。時間の許す限り、ぜひ神田祭の全ての神事を観賞してみてくださいね。

2017年 神田祭【鍛冶町二丁目町会】 投稿者:釣りバカ[:en]Kanda Festival is a festival to be held in Chiyoda Ward, Tokyo. At the Kanda Meigami held at the Kanda Meisami, people are always full of people in the precincts during the festival period. It is included in one of the three biggest festivals in Japan from the size and history of the scale, and it is aligned with the Kyoto Gion Festival and the Osaka Tenjin Festival. Furthermore, it is also the “Festival of the Edo,” as well as the Shen Festival and the Sanno Festival. As for the origins of the gorgeous Kanda festival which is worrisome, the material is insufficient, so I do not know the details. However, from some literature Tokugawa Ieyasu knows that the virtue of Kanda Omijin was able to fulfill the unity of the wish. From that, gathered the revered Tokugawa Ieyasu, got the back of the Tokugawa family and the Kanda festival developed. Thus the Kanda festival began to be held grandly after the Edo era, and gorgeous mountain carriages were carried out. Naturally it was allowed to go inside the Edo castle, as well as the Shogun and the Oku prefabricated songs were done, so that we got the title of the Tenka Festival as well as the Sanno festival.

By the way, the Kanda Matsuri Festival was held every other year in the second century AD, most recently in 2017, two years later in 2019. At the Shinko Festival, a luxurious matrix of Ninomiya, Ninomiya, Sannomiya, Lion head floats goes round, Kanda Akasaka gets crowded with people. There are 108 towns in the Matsuko area, so the priestly priest and the doorkteer travel for a distance of about 30 kilometers. It seems that the number of people in the Shinko festival queue will be several thousand people including the festival. As expected it is a festival suitable for the title of the Tenka Festival.


And the shrine miyaren the next day of the Shinko festival will gather about 200 plants and mikoshi in large and small from the areas such as Kotokuda, Nihonbashi 1, Iwamoto Higashikoda, Kanda central, Major Marunouchi etc. It is one of the ways to enjoy walking around the city as it is possible to meet as many as a mikoshi and a floatplank are drilled everywhere on this day. When the shrine’s march and the floats of the mountain car are finished, a demonstration of Kimono Style Takinobu and a dedication-ceremony ceremony by Omotesenke family service are done strictly. Relaxingly graceful dance is a powerful fireworks, but Kanjo Ryu fukonomi dedicated at the Kanda festival is richly varied, such as intense or calm. As far as time permits, please enjoy seeing all the Kanda festival’s priests.
