Wish Upon 8000 Daruma Dolls! Setsubun Festival With Many DarumaHourin-ji Temple (Daruma Temple)
The reason for the name 'Daruma Temple', over 8000 various daruma are installed in the precinct. Its Setsubun festival is well-known, it's the custom for people to put the wish charms on daruma on theses days. The last day, the daruma is covered with many charms and becomes white!
Sold at the precinct, Daruma-yaki is a kind of rare because it can be seen only on 2/2 and 3. It's even good after it gets cold because of much egg, and very popular enough for people to make a line to buy. Enjoy it together with Setsubun Festival!
