*''Japanese'': 嵐山 ''(Arashiyama)''

''Arashiyama'' is a [[Noh]] play in which the deity of [[Mt. Yoshino]] and those of the mountain's [[sakura|cherry trees]] reveal themselves and dance.

The actor performing the role of the chief mountain deity wears a gold mask, white wig, and lavish costume with billowing folds of cloth, exaggerating his size and stage presence.
