Former Miyagawa House, farmhouse01 ／ Lion theatre
The Fuseya lion dance begins with a procession to Hakusan Shrine and moves through an exorcism dance, and at the end a performer in a lion mask plays a female role in a play. The lion's head has upright ears and no white hair. It lapsed in the Showa 30s (the decade from 1955) and was revived in 1972.
02 ／ Miyake bunraku
When the Tenpo reforms left Osaka's bunraku unable to be staged, the female-role puppeteer Toyomatsu Seijuro came to Nagoya, was invited by a lover of gidayu chanting, and moved to Miyake Village. He taught the neighbours puppet-handling techniques, which began Miyake bunraku. It died out around 1912 (Taisho 1), and six puppet heads remain.
03 ／ Okakoi levee
The levee ran from the former Miyake Village to Yoneno in the neighbouring town, and was once called the "high road", a village levee that was also a road. After Nonaka Village became land held by the Owari domain's Naruse Buzen family in 1661, it was raised again and again, benefiting the downstream villages including Nonaka. Only a small part remains after land improvement.
