3 “Neburi Nagashi Lantern” that takes a bath in a hot spring and removes dirt
The origin of the Aomori Nebuta Festival, “Nebuta Nagashi,” is an event that dispels sleep and drains impurities into rivers and the sea. At Aomoriya, this Neburi-nagashi is expressed in an open-air bath in winter. Wishes written before bathing are placed in a small lantern and floated around the nebuta.
Nebuta is the northern guardian deity “Bishamonten”. Bishamonten has been worshiped as a god who brings wisdom and good luck. You can enjoy the Yukimi open-air while looking at the Nebuta and thinking about your wishes.
