ancestor of the sanshin

It's March from tomorrow!
March 3th is
By "san" and "si",
It's Sanshin's Day (*・∇・*)ノ

Our generation doesn't often listen to folk songs themselves,
Listen to the sound of taiko drums during the summer Eisa season
I love the sound of the Sanshin (^^)♪

In fact, in Yomitan Village, it is said to be the originator of the sanshin.
There is Akainu Womb, which enshrines Akainko.

Akainuko is a legendary figure,
I'm not sure if it really existed or not.
There is still a splendid place of worship (^ ^)

Okinawan performing arts include Kumiodori, Ryukyu dance, Okinawan theater,
There are various Okinawan folk songs such as Eisa and Shishimai.
Kumiodori is also registered as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage.
It is attracting attention from all over the world.

If you are interested in Okinawan performing arts,
Why don't you visit Akainu Utsutsu once? (・∇・)ノ
