People from all over Japan visit Kanda Myojin Shrine to make wishes for the new year. They ask for everything from a happy home to commercial success and new relationships—not necessarily romantic ones, but stronger and happier ties to others.

At the Daikoku Festival, a dancer dresses as Daikoku, the deity of fortune, and uses his lucky mallet to bring good fortune to attendees.
