Shirakami-san is a historic shrine in downtown Hiroshima, located right on Peace Boulevard. During its autumn festival, held on October 28th every year, the decorated shrine is buzzing, food and game stalls line the street, and you can enjoy this region's brand of colorful and rhythmic kagura dance.
