‘FIRST VISIT TO OFFER NEW YEAR PRAYER’
The beginning of new year SHOGATSU ( 正月)starts from the first visit to the shrines and the temples to pray new year resolution.

I’m in SENSOJI temple in ASAKUSA, one of the most popular first visit places in Tokyo moreover Japan.
There are less people than usual due to Covid-19 this year.
There are body temperature checking places before we go in.
Anyway all NAKAMISE shopping street’s decorations are SHOGATSU ( new year) version.
There is a colorful leaves still
in the precinct beside the stream.
The pleasant atmosphere of this temple is same as usual.
I hope this year will be a nice year for you and your family!!
Happy new year!!
I’m Nobu, one heart enjoy together!!!
