What does New Years look like in Japan? Read on to find out more!<br \/><a name='more'><\/a><br \/>Originally celebrated at the same time as Chinese New Year, Japanese New Year has been celebrated according to the Gregorian calendar since 1873. Basically, Japan celebrates new year at the same time as the Western world! Some of the traditions associated with Japanese year follow.<\/p>\n<h3>December 31st<\/h3>\n<p>New Years eve is the big day in the West, with people often out celebrating until the small hours of the morning. While this is becoming more popular in the bigger cities in Japan, in the smaller cities the traditional Japanese visit to the temple still lives on. At midnight, Buddhist temples all over Japan ring their bells 108 times \u201cto symbolize the 108 human sins in Buddhist belief, and to get rid of the 108 worldly desires regarding sense and feeling in every Japanese citizen.\u201d*<\/p>\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.oomitravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/101040HeianJinguShrineKyoto-1.jpg\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Unique Japan Tours Heian Jingu Kyoto New Years Visit Shrine\" border=\"0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.oomitravel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/101040HeianJinguShrineKyoto-1.jpg\" height=\"320\" title=\"Unique Japan Tours Heian Jingu Kyoto New Years Visit Shrine\" width=\"213\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 213px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 213\/320;\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><i>Visiting your local shrine at New Years is normal.<\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>Many Japanese people often visit their local shrine on New Years Day to pray for a good year ahead and to get their <i>omikuji<\/i> fortune.
