About this event

Hatsumode will be held at Aso Shrine, the Ichinomiya (first shrine) of Higo Province and the head shrine of approximately 450 Aso shrines nationwide. The two-story Romon gate is counted as one of Japan's Three Great Romon Gates and has regained its majestic appearance following restoration after the Kumamoto earthquake. Along with Hatsumode, visitors can also enjoy touring the Mizuki (natural water springs) in the temple town. It is a traditional event celebrating the start of the New Year, visited by many worshippers from all over the country.
