Akizuki Yoroizoroe (Samurai March)
Culture & History
The practice originated from when the first feudal lord of Akizuki clan held military exercises before going to war. It's breathtaking to see samurais in armour marching in the historical town. On the same day, Kogetsu-style taiko drumming and Hayashi-style hand cannon will also be performed.
