At Aso, before welcoming spring, the dead grass are burned, helping new grass seedlings to sprout, and preventing forestation. This process is called controlled burning.

‘鬼火焚き|ONIBITAKI’ by Higashikara

At the end of New Year, it is traditional to burn decorations and bills together with a tower made out of bamboo as a prayer for good health. This is commonly done all over Japan, but this burning pillar of fire is a unique feature in Shirakawa.
