Sumiyoshi Shrine, New Year 2007

Night time at Sumiyoshi shrine, the most famous New Year Shrine in Osaka, Japan. Each year millions of people travel to this shrine to pay their respects, pray, make a wish and collect their fortune.

Traditionally, you throw money at the shrine, anything from 1 yen to 1000 yen....


Me..... after a warming cup of sake infused milk with giner, yummmmmmmmm!
