People dressed in glossy kimonos sit on both banks of a stream flowing through the garden, composing a waka poem before a cup floating down the stream passes by them, after which they pick up and drink from the cup. The ritual also embodies the act of purifying oneself from impurities by floating cups in the clear water, and it is held annually at this time. While it is possible to observe this event, spots fill up quickly, so it\u2019s advisable to secure a place early.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-169210\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fn_dazaifu-tenmangu-kyokusui_2025_cl.jpeg?resize=1400%2C933&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"1400\" height=\"933\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fn_dazaifu-tenmangu-kyokusui_2025_cl.jpeg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fn_dazaifu-tenmangu-kyokusui_2025_cl.jpeg?resize=300%2C200&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fn_dazaifu-tenmangu-kyokusui_2025_cl.jpeg?resize=1024%2C682&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/fn_dazaifu-tenmangu-kyokusui_2025_cl.jpeg?resize=768%2C512&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\u2022 3\/2 (Sun.)<br \/>\n\u2022 13:00~15:00<br \/>\n\u2022 Free viewing<br \/>\n\u2022 Kyokusui Garden, Dazaifu Tenmangu Shrine<br \/>\n\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/d8nJhTcyXQJNnHkw8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">4-7-1 Saifu, Dazaifu City, Fukuoka<\/a><br \/>\n\u2022 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dazaifutenmangu.or.jp\/archives\/1540\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.dazaifutenmangu.or.jp\/archives\/1540<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Kyokusui-no-Utage is a Shinto ritual that reproduces the elegant imperial court ceremonies of the Heian period&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29305,"featured_media":169210,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","tags":[],"class_list":["post-169209","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","location-dazaifu","event-type-culture","en-US"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event\/169209","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/event"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/29305"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=169209"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/169210"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=169209"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=169209"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
