First Visit to Shrine

Japanese people visit a shrine at New Year which is called "Hatsumode".

We pray happiness and peace for new year.

Many shrines are set at shrines and it looks like a festival. Amazake which is sweet sake is sold at shrine as well. This very sweet, hot and little sake taste drink makes your body warmer!

I went to Heian shrine this year. It takes about 30 minutes from NISHIYAMA RYOKAN.

It was very crowded with visitors but it was fun! It made me feel new year has come.

Lucky Taxi

This morning, a yasaka taxi with pattern of a four-leaf clover came to our ryokan. Most yasaka taxies are with a three-leaf clover. Taxies with a four-leaf clover are only 4 in Kyoto city. We cannot make a reservation, so this is very lucky. It is said that this taxi bring you a lucky. If you ride on it, you can get a special certificate and sticker. When youcome to Kyoto, let’s find yasaka taxi with pattern of a　four-leaf clover. May this picture bring you good luck!
