All Reviews of Nagasaki Kunchi Festival

Watching the autumn festival at Suwa Shrine in Nagasaki, I was blown away by the powerful and energetic dances. It’s an art form that blends culture and tradition, and you can really feel the sincerity of the participants. I couldn’t take my eyes off it!

The Kunchi Festival is an energetic and lively event, officially recognized as an important intangible folk culture in Japan. The performances are so much fun, and you can even watch the 'Niwa-mi' parade, which is said to bring good luck!
