明応9年6月7日
応仁の乱で中断していた祇園会の山鉾巡行が33年ぶりに復活。
The Gion Festival's yamahoko float procession in Kyoto resumed in 1500 after a 33-year interruption caused by the Ōnin War.
For over three decades, the grand yamahoko floats of the Gion Festival in Kyoto had been silenced by the chaos of the Ōnin War.
On this day in 1500, the procession of elaborately decorated floats returned, renewing a cherished civic tradition.
Gion Matsuri, dedicated to the Yasaka Shrine, blended Shinto ritual with community celebration.
The revival symbolized the city's recovery from conflict and the resilience of cultural heritage.
This event laid the groundwork for one of Japan's most enduring and famous festivals.
