Rice cake throwing event

【Autumn Harvest festival】16th Oct at Garan Complex

Monks and Koyasan residents thanked their local goddess and god who protect the land and keep this place holy, for the good harvest.
After the ceremony, rice cake throwing was held.

Thousands of mochi (glutinous rice cakes) are thrown for good luck, 
there are a lot of people waiting to catch as many rice cakes as possible. it was big fun to see people are so fanatic!!

Many Rice cake throw event are held in Koyasan this month.
Highly recommend to join!!
