岸和田だんじり会館

I wasn't so interested in the festival, so what about it? When I entered while thinking, a huge portable shrine was settled in a dim and elegant space, and a magnificent BGM like a festival like Goemon was flowing, and I was overwhelmed by the atmosphere. It seems that the drums cannot be used due to the influence of the corona, and as an apology, I received a happi strap when I entered. You may be more happy than taiko. The Danjiri Theater is regularly screened in the room immediately after entering, and you can enjoy movies-like images. There is also a 3D theater in another exhibition room, and the exhibition is very elaborate and fun. You may want a little commentary because the video of the danjiri just flows with the background music. After the 2nd floor, there were usually exhibits related to the Danjiri Festival.

It's a spectacular facility, I bought a common ticket that allows you to visit the Kishiwada Nature Museum and Kishiwada Castle. It seems that the "Tanjiri Festival", which was canceled last year due to the influence of Corona, will be held this year.

You can experience the fun of the Danjiri Festival with videos and materials. Especially powerful images are wonderful.

It is near Kishiwada Castle. About 20 minutes walk from Kishiwada station. Takojizo station is closer than Kishiwada station, but I think Kishiwada station is easier to use because limited express trains and rapid trains do not stop. If you stop by after visiting the castle, you can also go sightseeing in Kishiwada. The Danjiri Festival is held in September and October, but it is worth taking a look at the Danjiri Mikoshi floats that are on display all year round so you can take a closer look at them!

Visit to 2021.12.25 / Kishiwada Danjiri Kaikan [Time required] 1 hour 30 minutes [Cost] 400 yen / person (200 yen discount at JAF) [Parking lot] Paid (There is a municipal parking lot next to the building) [Impression] I took the Nankai train from Namba, got off at Takojizo station, and arrived in about 10 minutes on foot. Kishiwada station is more convenient because of the number of stops, but the station name is interesting, so I went from Takojizo station. I heard later that there is a famous stained glass at this station. In addition, the origin of the name is that Kishiwada Castle was attacked and just before the castle fell, a lawyer on a large octopus and thousands of octopuses appeared and saved the predicament. The Kishiwada Danjiri Kaikan HP says, "On Saturdays and Sundays, we will accept information about the museum," so we will go to the entrance reception on the 2nd floor with expectation. For JAF discounts, purchase admission tickets at a manned window, not at a vending machine. At that time, because of Corona, I received a "key chain" as an apology for not being able to beat the drums at the attraction. First of all, you can understand the outline of "Kishiwada Danjiri Festival" with a large-scale vision. Here, I saw a volunteer wearing a yellow happi coat, so When I asked if I could join him, he kindly agreed and joined the parents and children of the previous customer. They explained each corner carefully, and I was able to understand the "Danjiri Festival," which would be difficult to understand with just the information board. There was also a 3D theater on the way, and I was able to experience the festival with my eyes and body. (You can get 3D glasses) After receiving a brief explanation, I went around again to see exhibits such as floats, and then purchased "Chikiri-kun Pin Batch" at the souvenir corner on the 1st floor. The calendar starts in September, and the feelings of the people living for the "Danjiri Festival" have been conveyed. On my way home, I heard a little explanation about the Kishu Kaido and visited Tenshoji Temple in Tenshoji through the town of Honmachi. After that, I visited Kishiwada Castle (Chigameri Castle).
