You can see this kind of scenery early in the morning this season.You can see the city of Kyoto and the Kyoto Expressway shining in gold.It's only a few minutes after the rising sun, but the real thing is more beautiful.
Happy New Year.

Thank you again this year.
The busiest days of the year have continued since New Year's Eve, and if you notice it, it's already eight days.Maybe because it rained cold today, there weren't many people visiting, so I finally took a break.
This year's Mt. Inari is less crowded than New Year's Day expected, and it feels like it was well dispersed until the 5th.Even so, Fushimi Inari Taisha is the 270th largest shrine in Japan and is a very popular spot visited by about XNUMX million worshipers every three days.Mt. Inari was more lively than ever.
When the first visit is settled down, the "cold visit" will begin, in which you will visit during the coldest seasons of the XNUMXth solar term.The number of worshipers continues until "Hatsuuma", the most important day at Inari Shrine.

I managed to get ready for the New Year and I'm ready to welcome you.I was worried about rain, but New Year's Eve Kyoto seems to be okay.Thank you for welcoming the New Year safely.
The photo on the right is a vegetable for ozoni.In Kyoto, we cut all the ingredients into round pieces so that we can spend a round and peaceful time.For this reason, we use small, thin radishes with a length of about 10 cm, called celebratory radishes, in slices.Cut the sweet and bright red carrots called Kintoki carrots into slices.Actually, I put in a big potato called head potato, but since New Year's Eve is a service all night, it is hard to eat it all night, so this year I will substitute the shrimp potato that the believer gave me.Celebrate the New Year with such vegetables and round rice cakes and white miso.
Well, after taking a nap for a while, I will do my best all night until tomorrow night.
We wish you a happy new year.
I made shimenawa.

All the shimenawa in the precincts were re-tensioned, and the shimenawa for the New Year was also stretched on the mound.I also reattached the paper shide, and the preparations for the New Year are almost complete.
About 800 gods are enshrined in the precincts of Araki Jinja.
I changed the flowers.

The flowers of Mr. Fudo and Mr. Kobo have been reborn.The New Year's flowers are artificial flowers that were dedicated, but they are very well made and look like the real thing.The plums, pine trees, southern sky, and sarcandra glabra were auspicious and lived luxuriously with golden willows and birds of paradise flowers.
