About this spot

This facility, affectionately known as 'Kagaribi Hall,' presents the history and charm of Nishi Maone Bon Odori, designated as Japan's Important Intangible Folk Cultural Property. Display exhibits feature the actual haniui costumes worn by dancers and the distinctive woven hats and Hiko-san headwear used to conceal faces, allowing you to understand how the unique ethereal atmosphere is created. Dance video materials are also screened, and viewing these beforehand will deepen your appreciation of the performance you'll witness that evening.

Tips

Located in the center of the Nishi Maone area, close to the evening venue. Since the exhibits are valuable cultural property, please view them quietly.

Best time to visit
