In Mishima town there is a traditional festival called “Saiknokami”.
People cut the sacred trees from the mountain and decorate them by
“Onpei” and “Onpe”, lucky charms made by papers and/or fans.
There are 4 types of “Sainokami” in each area of the town.
In every evening of January 15 people stand this decorated tree in each area and put the fire.
