As December comes to an end, Japanese people take a long-deserved holiday, many returning to their hometowns and reuniting with their extended families to see in the New Year. On the first day of the year, many locals head to a temple or shrine to pray for good fortune and success in the coming year. Known as hatsumode, this ritual practice is a great way to celebrate the holiday.
