The three mikoshi (portable shrines) competing to see how fast they can spin around the flag is a sight to behold.
This is the annual festival of Kubo Yasaka Shrine, which is considered one of the three major summer festivals in Onomichi. After the three mikoshi carrying the deity were paraded through the city, they gathered on the street in front of Onomichi Ferry Pier, where the three mikoshi floats competed for the best time as they raced around a flag with the name of Yasaka Shrine written on it. It is done.
