Takayama 鷹山
This one is available at Daugakudo where these figurines are exhibited, not at Kaisho.
In Edo period, a Typhoon dameged Takayama and forced out it of Yamaboko parade. After that, it caught by fire. Only left to Takayama are three Goshintai and a dog figurine.
A figurine with a bird, is Arihara no Narihira, a famous poet and court noble in the 9th century. A figurine in the center has a Chimaki in his hands. They are movable and it pretends to eat it. Due to this gimmick, Takayama sells Chimaki to eat. The right figurine is Inutsukai.
At Kaisyo, we have many Kawii things.
In 2019, Takayama is to come back to Yamaboko parade for the first time in 193 years! Congratulations and welcome back!!!
Special Gosyuin stamp is available. THIS YEAR ONLY!
Jyomyo yama 浄妙山
Jyomyo yama shows us a scene in The tale of Heike. The Heike forces faced to the the Genji forces between the Uji river. Ichirai Hoshi jumps over Tsusui no Jyomyo (a man in black Samurai armour) to defeat the Heike forces.
Hashi Benkei Yama 橋弁慶山
Hashi Benkei yama tells the encounter of Ushiwaka maru and Benkei. They met each other for the first time on the Gojo bridge, a bridge known as Matsubara bashi. Benkei was on the bridge every day and had a sword fight with Samurai he met. When he won, he had a sword of enemies. He collected 999 swords and 1000th man he saw was Ushiwakamaru. Ushiwakamaru defeated completely him and he decided to serve him.
Suzuka yama 鈴鹿山
Suzukayama shows us a story in which Seoritsuhime no Mikoto, a Shinto Deity, defeated Oni. Oni is an imaginary creature who do evil to people.
Goshintai is Seoritsuhime and she is the most beautiful lady in Yamoaboko of Gion matsuri. She is on Suzukayama with mask but a small figurine of her doesn’t wear it.
ありがたや～
