2018 Tsukiji Honganji Nighting Party / Nighting Bell

[Sam] January 3, 2019 18:00

DSC08183ELS'.jpgDSC08186''RSG.jpg 2018 is finally getting stuck, and today is New Year's Eve.

At Tsukiji Honganji Temple, from 23:00 on December 31st, the annual Buddhist memorial service "Nighting Party" was held in main hall, reflecting on the passing years, thinking about the new year, and looking at the last Buddha's virtue of the year.

The main hall is lit up, with candle art mimicking the Tsukiji Honganji logo, a amazake entertainment table, and a tent selling soba and oden.

From 22:00, a "bell of night removal" contradiction ticket will be distributed only for 350 people, and will be guided after worshiping the night removal party.

In addition, a special "bell of peace" on the precincts will be hit without a numbered ticket after worshiping at night. In the multi-purpose hall of the information center, "Buddha de Daikiri-Let's ask the monk-" is planned to think about the moyamoya of people's questions and worries with the monk.
