Shichi-Go-San Shrine Visit

About this event

Shichi-Go-San is one of Japan's most beloved family traditions, in which children aged three, five, and seven are dressed in their finest kimono and brought to shrines to pray for their continued health and happiness. At Yasaka Shrine, the beautifully dressed children add a splash of color to the already picturesque Maruyama Park surroundings. It is a heartwarming celebration of childhood that fills Kyoto's shrines with joy in mid-November.
