流鏑馬（やぶさめ）は、日本の古式弓馬術。武家社会で行われた騎射の一種で、馬術と弓術を組み合わせたもの.。現在、流鏑馬は様式を多様に変化させつつも伝統を受け継ぎ、日本各地で盛んに行われ、観光の目玉となっている。Yabusame is a type of mounted archery in traditional Japanese archery. An archer on a running horse shoots three special "turnip-headed" arrows successively at three wooden targets.This style of archery has its origins at the beginning of the Kamakura period. Minamoto no Yoritomo became alarmed at the lack of archery skills his samurai possessed. He organized yabusame as a form of practice.Nowadays, the best places to see yabusame performed are at the Tsurugaoka Hachiman-gū in Kamakura and Shimogamo Shrine in Kyoto (during Aoi Matsuri in early May). It is also performed in Samukawa and on the beach at Zushi, as well as other locations.
