Mid-Autumn Festival from Ryukyu Dynasty revived
On September 21 and 22, the Mid-Autumn Festival held during the Ryukyu Dynasty was held in the Una forecourt of Shurijo Castle Park in Naha.
On the opening day, four masters of the traditional performing arts who have the status of Living National Treasure of Japan appeared on the stage.
They performed in front of the now-repaired pillars in front of the Seiden (State Hall).
On the last day, kumi-odori traditional Okinawan musicals and ryubu traditional dance were performed.
Selection was also carried out for the “King” and “Queen” to appear in the Shuri Castle Festival in October.
