The region of Soma, is famous for its horse farms. Since 1000 years, a tribute was paid to them through the festival Soma-Nomaoi shrines around Ota and Odaka and sanctuary in the town of Nakamura Soma. This festival has been classified Although intangible Japanese pop culture. The highlights of these three days are the Koshiki Kacchu Keiba, a race of 1000 m. riders that engage in samurai armor, helmets and carrying the katana, the sword traditional and Shinki Sodatsusen in which hundreds of samurai on horseback fighting for standards of the 40 sanctuaries launched into the air at the same time which is from a firework. These events take place July 24 on the large field Hibarigahara. But throughout the festival events take place, as the solemn opening ceremony of the 23 in each temple, the procession of 3 km to the Hibarigahara the sound of a conch shell and the 24 drums of war, or ritual Nomagake in which men dressed in white with bare hands catch the horses and offer an offering to the shrine on 25 Okaka. Each of these events is very spectacular and you'll feel to see roller paint Sengoku period (1477-1573) unfold before your eyes.
