Hinoemata Kabuki
Traditional performing arts handed down since the Edo period
Hinoemata Kabuki
Hinoemata Kabuki was first performed in the late Edo period (1603-1867) when villagers went to Ise for pilgrimage and adopted kabuki they had seen and heard in Kamigata and Edo for village entertainment. Designated as an important intangible folk cultural asset by the prefecture in 1999, Hono Kabuki has entertained villagers at festivals in May and August.
The Hinoemata Stage
The Hinoemata Stage, on which the kabuki is performed, was erected in front of the Chinju Shrine and designated as a National Important Tangible Folk Cultural Property in 1976.
