　From 14:00 on January 10th, the New Year's annual "Kamikaiki" was held at Nihonbashi Eitarou Sohonpo, and the first 500 people were served with rice cake soup powder. This year, the 11th is the weekend, so it will be held one day earlier on weekdays and Friday. The music of Edo Dai-Kagura, a popular performing artIntangible Folk Cultural Property with a history of 400 years, is played by people all over Maruichi Senosha. In addition, special sales are also held, and it is crowded with many visitors.

Kagamibiraki is an annual event in which kagami mochi, which had been offered to household miniature shrine and tokonoma as New Year's decorations, is lowered, thanks to Shinto and Buddha, wishes for sound health, and eaten with zoni or soup powder. In the past, kagami mochi was said to be broken by a mallet or by hand because it was accused of the word cut by a samurai, and expresses it as "open".　I hear that the use of red bean juice is also reminiscent of ancient red rice. It is a hospitality that warms your body and mind under the cold sky.
