Hatsumode (first shrine visit) — the tradition
Japanese people visit a shrine or temple in the first 3 days to pray for the year ahead. The most popular shrines get 3+ million visitors in 3 days. If you want the atmosphere, pick a mid-tier shrine (5-15 min wait) not the mega ones (2-4 hour waits).

|---|---|---|---|
| Meiji Jingu | Tokyo | 3.2 million | 2-4 hours |
| Naritasan Shinshoji | Chiba | 3 million | 2-3 hours |
| Kawasaki Daishi | Kanagawa | 2.9 million | 2-3 hours |
| Sensoji | Tokyo | 2.8 million | 1-2 hours |
| Fushimi Inari | Kyoto | 2.5 million | 1-2 hours |
| Local ward shrines | Any city | 5,000-30,000 | 5-15 min |
