About this event

This is a year-end market where shops selling daruma dolls line the precinct of Shofukuji Temple on Mount Iizumi, also known as Iizumi Kannon. People wishing for business prosperity and family safety visit to purchase lucky charms for the year-end. Shofukuji Temple is the 5th temple along the Bando 33 Kannon pilgrimage and is introduced as a temple that holds a daruma market early in the season in the Kanto region. In 2026, it will be held for two days on December 17 and 18 at Mount Iizumi Shofukuji Temple. It is about a 15-minute bus ride from Odawara Station bound for Shin-Matsuda/Shimo-Soga, followed by about a 10-minute walk from the Iizumibashi bus stop. It is an event where visitors browse the daruma stalls within the temple grounds and select an item into which they invest their wishes. Visitors can check with the temple before visiting to confirm the event status.
