◇ Story ◇
"Double-sided accommodation"
A double-sided shrine is a demon with a face on both sides that has been handed down to Hida Takayama since ancient times.
Both sides of one head, 4 powerful arms, 5m body length ...
Contrary to its terrible appearance, it is said that it was a heroic person who helps the weak.
Based on the legend, we arranged one side as a “hero” into a large stream.
The legend of heroes and double-sided camps, including emotions, will be expressed in traditional Japanese performing arts.
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
In addition to seeing folk songs,
You can experience Japanese dance using “Folding Fans”!
Please feel the joy of touching traditional performing arts and the wonderfulness of expressing them with your skin
-------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------
! This is the point!
A venue designed by [Deko-za-za] with great care
The stage is from the audience to the eyes and nose!
In addition, the design of the building does not miss sound, so you can feel the power and vibration of the drums directly on your skin!
We will bring you into the world created by [Decorate Seat], such as on-site presence and taiko drum impulses.
