We visited 増上寺 (Zojoji) near Tokyo Tower for a count down event. Hope this is helpful to those who want to spend a new years in Japan, or who want to know the Japanese rituals.

  • I doubt that is good for the environment, but those balloons were so pretty!!!

  • @foxylover777 I just saw on the temple's website that they use environmentally friendly balloons for this event. The balloons melt in water. :)

  • Wow! That was the first day of this year, and now it's the last day with only 6 more hours until the new year comes! I wish I could see it in Japan, maybe another year.

  • Hiroko I love you (^_^)

  • Bonne année 2011 de belgique :-)))

  • I was there then too. We stumbled across it after going to Tokyo Tower. A happy accident. Was beautiful!! We arrived quite early but the balloons were still all gone.

  • Wow! How amazing!!

  • @CatchMyBrains @Kat0ntheG0 I know! I've been to Vaticano and took pictures of every corner, but beers? pogo? just before going to pray? And this is common to every temple or shrine here in Japan, not only the famous ones. I guess the perception of religiousness or "holiness" here and there are just different.

  • @Fedende Well there are some Roman Catholic ones here in Europe whre they even sell things like pens and books and stuff. And where you can take all the pictures you wat. But those are the more famous churches like in Canterbury or the Notre Dame

  • @Fedende not so, really old churches and cathedrals are tourist sights too. Mostly in Europe, but there are a few notable ones in the US too.

  • wow! there are so many people! happy new year! omedeto ^-^

  • i went to 2010 nye in Zojoji Temple

    2011 year look the same 2010
