Hatsuuma





Hatsuuma is the biggest festival of Inari Shrines; shrines that celebrate business.  All the business owners, shops and restaurants owners in the town come to celebrate the prosperity of business for the year this day from midnight.  It's on the first Uma day of February.

「初午」2月7日は熊本城稲荷神社の初午祭。2月の最初の午(うま)の日が稲荷神社の大きな祭で、午前0時から地元の商店街の人々が1年の商売繁盛を願ってお参りする。とても寒い日だったが、大勢の参拝客がいた。
