Tsushima Festival Update

 





Today I was ableto visit Tsushima Shrine and also the area where Nobunaga and Nohime enjoyed the Tsushima Matsuri in 1556.

Rumi Komonz Kicho&Nobunaga (p. 41) "Leaving Hotta's residence together, Kicho and Nobunaga went to the Tsushima Shrine annual festival. Having only a few bodyguards, twenty-two year old Kicho and her twenty-three year old husband were dressed simply as villagers of Owari." 

You can read the full story in my January 2014 post. This is important because Nobunaga was not just in involved in military affairs, but also had the time to spend with his wife Nohime. Believe or not the Oda family has a long relationship with Tsushima.

Nobunaga no tame!
