Why You Should Visit

A farmers' market in the grounds of Kasuga Shrine in Tamba Sasayama's castle town, bringing together local growers and makers of processed foods. True to its name—naorai is the shared meal with the gods after a rite—priests pray for a good harvest and the bounty is passed from vendors to visitors. The fifth edition, on the autumn equinox, is the first held in the evening, so you can browse the stalls in the darkening shrine grounds while a purification rite and taiko offering take place. For anyone who wants to pick seasonal vegetables, bread, coffee and jam in a shrine grove.
