Munakata: The Sea and Goddesses
Munakata City is located in northwestern Kyushu, facing the Sea of Genkai. As an ancient maritime trade route, Munakata opened its doors to international commerce and cultures, playing an important role in history. The city has been nurtured by deep faith since mythical times. And the 1,400-year-old Munakata Taisha, which worships three sister goddesses, is at the center of that faith. Munakata Taisha holds an annual ritual in which the two elder goddesses-who live on nearby islands-travel to join their younger sister in Munakata. Hundreds of fishing boats take part in the spectacular Miare Festival, carrying vibrant banners. Poet Peter MacMillan visits Munakata Taisha and observes the ritual-getting transported back in time. He also visits Oshima Island, the starting point of the festival, where there's a smaller shrine dedicated to the youngest goddess, whom islanders revere as the god of sea safety and good hauls. On Journeys in Japan, Peter MacMillan follows the traces of the ancient people who directed their eyes to the sea and beyond.
