Shiwasu Ningyocho
Preparation for the New Year.
The first day of New Year's Day (December 13). It is said to be a day when we start preparing for the New Year.
In the Edo period, we carried out general cleaning (soot removal) throughout the town. In modern times, around late December, it decorates Kadomatsu and ornaments.
However, it is disliked to decorate on New Year's Eve because it becomes a decoration overnight. Also, on the 29th, nine can be avoided because it leads to bitterness. It seems to be around the 28th or 30th after the general cleaning is completed.

You can see the beautiful flowers blooming vividly on the hedges in the city. Ningyocho, where history and culture remain strong, is a city where you can still feel the atmosphere of Edo.
