The Japanese title for New Year is Shogatsu, and it has always been one of the liveliest times of the year in this amazing nation. Shogatsu is a time for families to come together, reflect on the past year, and welcome the upcoming one with joy and gratitude. Japanese New Year traditions include various customs such as preparing special New Year’s dishes and visiting shrines and temples for prayers and blessings, and ringing bells to ward off evil spirits. Many Japanese also participate in “hatsumode,” the first shrine or temple visit of the year, where they make wishes for good fortune and success. The New Year period is a time of renewal, celebration, and cultural significance in Japan, and experiencing these traditions firsthand can be a fascinating and meaningful experience.
