Today, in the north of Japan, Hachinohe Enburi takes place. The festival features a series of traditional folk dances that are performed to herald the end of northern Japan's long and often harsh winter and usher in the coming of spring while praying for a successful planting and harvest season to come. Given these ongoing risks of famine, the festival has long become a particularly important form of imploring for a bountiful harvest. #mythology #myth #legend #calendar #February 17 #EnburiMatsuri #Hachinohe #HachinoheEnburi #Japan
