Chigo-mochi (稚児餅) is a skewered rice cake with a sweet and slightly salty miso filling. It's finished with a sparkling coat of 'koori mochi' (氷餅 - freeze dried mochi).
The icy appearance and hint of salt make this a perfect snack for combating the relentless Kyōto heat.

Suetomi's (末富) 'chigo-mamori' (稚児守) is inspired by the charm worn by the sacred page that rides the Naginata-hoko float (長刀鉾).

🙏CHIGO-MOCHI🎭

Originally made by Nakamura-rō (中村楼), a teahouse in the grounds of Yasaka-jinja, 'chigo-mochi' (稚児餅) was served to the festival's pages (稚児 'chigo') when they came to pray at the shrine on July 13th. The sweet was thought to offer sacred protection.

Nowadays produced all year round by Sanjō Wakasa-ya (三條若狭屋), the sweet remains a festival favourite.
Such was its importance to the city, that it was 1 of only 18 types of wagashi that were permitted to be made through WWII rationing (even when the festival was cancelled).

These children perform certain duties in a Shinto temple, nowadays mostly dancing and taking part in a parade.“ For centuries prepubescent children in Japan have been chosen as chigo, or “divine children”, who do divination and function as oracles.

The Naginata-hoko (長刀鉾 aka Naginata-boko), the best known of the floats, opens and then leads the Yamaboko Junkō (山鉾巡行).

Nowadays it is the only float upon which a 'sacred page' (稚児 'chigo') rides. Originally all hoko floats (鉾) would have had their own chigo.

1) NAGINATA-HOKO (長刀鉾)⚔️

The Naginata-hoko always leads the Gion Matsuri's first parade, the 'Saki Matsuri' (先祭り). As it is exempt from the lottery to determine the position of the floats, it was known in the past as 'Kuji-torazu' (くじ取らず 'Lot-drawing Not Necessary').

While the genre of chigo monogatari has pedophilic themes due to the age gaps ( chigo translates to milk / child as chi ans go / ko ) , there is still that patriarchal imbalance applied where the chigo assumes a female role, despite both parties being masculine. However, these stories are often

Gion Matsuri 2025 in Kyoto — Naginata-hoko Float

This is the only float that carries the Chigo (sacred child), who plays an important spiritual role in the festival. As a divine messenger, the Chigo does not walk on the ground during the festival.
