During the day, there are various events such as the "Echizen Asakura Sengoku Festival", a warrior procession and a matchlock gun demonstration by the musketeers💡At night, the Ichijodani Asakura Clan Ruins are lit up with about 15,000 candles🕯When the candles are lit, there are performances of erhu, kocarina, and gagaku, and the whole ruins area is enveloped in a fantastic atmosphere✨③About nearby spotsIf you think it's not worth going just for this, don't worry‼ ️About a 20-minute drive from here is Eiheiji, an incredibly majestic temple that is one of the two main temples of the Soto sect of Buddhism. ✨The grounds are very spacious and you can walk around inside. 🚶There is also a lantern festival here on August 20th, so it would be nice to go and see that as well. 😆I will tell you more about this in the next post!
