■See the Kitsune(Japanese fox) march and visit the shrine(Ohji inari shrine or Ohji shrine) praying for safety and peace!
Just enjoy! Free

■Kitsune March will pass the following places.
Shozoku-Inari-Jinja-Shrine(starting at midnight) ⇒ Oji Ginza Shopping Street ⇒ Hokutopia ⇒ Gongenzaka Guard ⇒ Morishita Street ⇒ Ishinabe-shoten ⇒ Ohji-inariji-jinja shrine ((scheduled to arrive at 1:30)

The Ohji area will be very crowded, so you need to go earlier to secure a place. Please understand that you could not get a good place once you leave that place.
I arrived at Oji Station around 23:00 last year, but there were already a hedges of people along the main street.
So I rushed to the alley of the shopping street in the back.
There will be stalls near KitaTopia. That area was crowded, but I guess that area might be an ideal place to see the festival.

■All night train service will be available around Tokyo throughout New Year's day. Ginza line will be out of service. Just in case, please check by your selves.

初詣&狐の行列の見学
https://kitsune.tokyo-oji.jp/

集合時間 : 12月 31 日(火) 22:30 PM
待ち合わせ場所 : JR王子駅 北口券売機 反対側 (写真参照)

狐の行列の通過ポイント
装束稲荷神社(深夜零時)~王子銀座商店街~北とぴあ前~権現坂ガード~森下通り~石鍋商店前~王子稲荷神社(1:30到着予定)

狐の行列をみて初詣をして帰る企画です。深夜に様々な狐が歩く幻想的なお祭りです。
大変混雑しておりますので、早めに行って場所を確保する必要があります。混んでいるため、見物中は簡単に移動はできないとお考え下さい。
昨年23時頃に私は王子駅に着きましたが、すでに大通りには人垣ができていました。
そこで裏の商店街の路地まで急ぎ場所を確保して見学いたしました。
北トピアの周辺は出店が出ます。混んでいますが、そのあたりでの見学が理想的だと思います。
