Kagura is Hiroshima's proudest traditional performing art, and at Kagura Monzen Toji Village, located atop a small mountain in the northern part of Hiroshima Prefecture, you can catch regular performances of Hiroshima Kagura while enjoying a charming traditional Japanese townscape. At the Kagura Dome and Kamukura-za Theatre, 22 different kagura troupes perform more than 150 days out of the year. This is a one-of-a-kind facility that you won't find anywhere else in Japan, where you and your guests can immerse yourselves in traditional Japanese culture.
