In the legends, it is said that the sun Goddess – Amaterasu blocked herself in a cave following an argument with her brother. As a consequence of her disappearance the world was cast in total darkness. The Gods tried everything to persuade the upset goddess to leave the cave. They begin to dance so wildly outside of the cave and finally attracted the Goddess to come out of the cave. The legend has been continued ever since, you can see “Yokagura (night dances)” performance at Takachiho Shrine during night time.
