There was a “Shimewa Festival” in Shimonoseki City, Yamaguchi Prefecture
A shrine person wraps a rope around a rock near the coast and prays for the safety of the ship
There was a story that there were no disasters or illnesses once you prayed towards this rock, and the festival continues today
At the festival, a shrine person climbed a 3m high rock and wound a new rope about 5m long.
And standing on the rock, I prayed that next year ’s ship ’s safety and a lot of fish could be taken.
見ていた人は「神社の人が岩から落ちないか心配でした
The person who was watching said, “I was worried that people at the shrine would fall from the rock.
I hope next year will be a peaceful year.
