In ancient times, the imperial family sent their princess to Ise Shrine in Mie Prefecture to serve as shrine maidens. Based on this history, a gorgeous Heian period procession will pass through the Saga Arashiyama area. The procession departs from Nonomiya Shrine and goes Togetsu-kyo Bridge, and finally Arashiyama Port. A ritual is held after the procession.
