NAHA ROPE FESTIVAL: Long ago, tugs-of-war were held throughout the island to give thanks for a bountiful harvest and to pray for rain. The tug-of-war was a community ritual in which people of all ages took part, symbolizing Okinawa’s spirit of yuimaaru (cooperation). The Naha Great Tug-of-War is the highlight of the Naha Rope Festival, the largest cultural festival in the prefecture, which lasts for three days over a long weekend in mid-October. Its roots can be traced back to the 17th century, when the two rulers of Naha battled one another. Their battle is represented in the tug-of-war between the two factions from the East and West. In 1997 it was officially recognized in the Guinness Book of Records as the largest tug-of-war with the largest straw rope in the world. About 280,000 people visit the event every year, of which about 15,000 can actually take part in the pulling.
