Short Description

The Taimatsu Akashi Fire Festival is a historical Japanese fire festival, rooted in a 420-year-old tradition honoring fallen soldiers. The main attraction is the dramatic sight of approximately 30 massive torches (Ohtaimatsu), some reaching 10 meters tall and 3 tons in weight, being set ablaze on a mountainside as the powerful beat of Taimatsu Taiko drums echoes, creating a breathtaking, fiery spectacle.
