warring states

Travel back in time to feudal Japan!Many traces and relics remain of the samurai from the Sengoku period (1467–1603) and there are locations filled with the spirit of the Sengoku age, such as Uesugi Jinja Shrine in Yonezawa, dedicated to Uesugi Kenshin. The area is packed with activities that convey the appeal and culture of the Sengoku period. Enjoy a popular festival that brings to life the Battles of Kawanakajima, the greatest battle of the period, the activities of the Yamagata Okitama Samurai Team modeled after Sengoku samurai and more.
