 NYE Celebrations & Events 


Japan is also known for its traditional practices during the new year. One such tradition observed on the new year is to watch the first sunrise of the year known as Hatsuhinode. People from across the country participate in this ritual and many people climb on top of mountains or go to the nearest beaches to get the best view of the sunrise on this occasion. People also have the tradition of visiting the temple on this day and this tradition is called Hatsumode. Many people start visiting the temples from midnight itself and this goes on till the evening of the new year day.

A relatively new addition to the Tokyo skyline is the Skytree, which opened in May 2012 and is now officially the tallest tower in the world. It includes a restaurant and observation tower, with the Tembo Galleria sky walk giving fantastic panoramic views across the city to all sides. It seems certain to be a popular new year destination, with the best fireworks views of the whole city available anywhere.
