Tadasu Noh
- ~Enjoy Noh, a World Heritage Site, in a World Heritage Forest~
Do you know what "Tadasu Noh" is?
"Tadasu Noh" is a revival of the "Tadasugawara Kanjin Sarugaku" that was performed in front of Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa and other distinguished feudal lords in 1464, about 550 years ago, on the occasion of the 34th Shikinen Sengu (yearly rebuilding) of Kamomioya Shrine. It is an outdoor Noh performance set in the dance hall of Kamomioya Shrine (an important cultural property), and in 2019, to commemorate the enthronement of Reiwa, it was renamed "Tadasu Noh" and has been held every year as a post-ritual ritual for the Kamo Festival (Aoi Festival).
At Kamo Mioya Shrine, the Sengu began 2100 years ago, and the Saigyo Sengu will be the 60th in 2036. Furthermore, in accordance with Emperor Goichijo's proclamation, the system of Sengu was established every 20 years, and the first one was held on April 13, 1036. It will be a special festival of the year.
This time, we interviewed him about Tadasu Noh, with the theme of "The charm of Tadasu Noh, where water, forests, and people live in harmony." We hope that you will be able to feel the profoundness that is unique to Kyoto.

● We prioritize selecting accommodation facilities and adventure tourism companies that are working on or have received a certification related to sustainable tourism. We do not offer tours that may have adverse effects on nature, culture, or social environment.
● We work with guide interpreters and staff who are highly aware of SDGs. The main guide interpreters, tour conductors, and local staff undergo training in advance, making sure to know the important points on every tour destination such as sustainability principles of tourism in general, as well as etiquette when visiting special areas such as World Heritage sites, preservation districts, and national parks. A guide interpreter shares information on the natural environment, regional culture, and cultural heritage during the tour.
●We work on reducing the amount of tour-related pamphlets and paper consumption. We also use bio-based inks. When sending out pamphlets, we make sure to simplify the packaging.Sunrise Tour SDGs (English site)
