初詣 [はつもうで] First shrine visit 새해 첫 신사 방문

1月、もう半分くらい過ぎてしまいましたが
明けましておめでとうございます！
今年もいいことが沢山あることを望み、私は1月1日浅草の浅草寺に参りました。
人生初の初詣でしたが、人の多さにびっくり！
これまで何回も浅草には行ったことがありますが、こんなに人が集まっているのは初めて見ました。

 

2011年がみなさんにも良い年になりますように☆
ちなみに、初詣とはウィキペディアによると、
初詣（はつもうで）とは、年が明けてから初めて神社または寺院や教会などに参拝する行事である。一年の感謝を捧げたり、新年の無事と平安を祈願したりする。初参り（はつまいり）ともいう。
ですと！


Happy New year! ( is it too late to saying? well, I don`t care :b)
I went to Sensoji Asakusa for Hatsumode Jan 1st, there was so crowded people who wants to visit the temple.
I`ve never seen these large crowd on the Asakusa street before.
Anyway, I hope 2011 is really x3 great and fantastic to all of youguys.
According to Wikipedia,
Hatsumōde (初詣, hatsumōde^?) is the first shrine visit of the New Year in Japan. Some people visit a Buddhist temple instead. Many visit on the first, second, or third day of the year as most are off work on those days. Generally, wishes for the new year are made, new o-mamori (charms or amulets) are bought, and the old ones are returned to the shrine so they can be burned. There are often long lines at major shrines throughout Japan.


1월1일, 저는 아사쿠사에 있는 [센소지]에 다녀왔습니다.
여러번 아사쿠사에 와봤지만, 이렇게 많은 사람은 첨 봅니다.ㅎㅎ
올 한해 좋은 일들만 가득하라고 소원도 빌고, 새해 첫날부터 기분좋은 에너지를 받은듯 해서 왠지 기분이 좋네요!
좀 늦었지만, 새해 복 많이 받으세요!
올 한해 좋은 일만 가득하시길☆
