A mikoshi is a Japanese portable shrine that is used in festivals to transport the spirit of a deity. Mikoshi are often built to resemble an actual shrine. They are usually made from wood, with extravagant gold and silver decorations and beautiful engravings, and a phoenix or other creature on the roof. The two poles that run through it make it possible for a group of people to carry it, bearing it on their shoulders as they transport it around at the festival.
