Sen Nichi Mairi (Visiting For 1000 Days)' Of Atago Shrine
It's said, the visiting the shrine from the night of 7/31 to the morning of 8/1 equals to the divine grace for 1000days-visiting. Many visitors climb the 4km mountain path through the night. The talisman of '火迺要慎 (Hinoyo'ujin') is sold only here.
