Information about Hatsumode, your first visit to the jinja in 2024
Yamakage Shinto Holland Saigu, Windroosplein 184 in Amsterdam welcomes you to make a fresh start in
the New Year. On New Year’s Day we are open from 10 am till 5 pm. We offer three options.
If you cannot come in person, you can make a virtual visit online without registration. All information is on
the following link.
For a visit in person you must make a reservation. You can choose between Harai and Mairi.
We perform the purification ceremony of Harai four times, starting at 11:00, 12:00 13:00 and 13:30. This
ceremony lasts 20 minutes and costs 20 euro per family or 10 euro per person. After Harai you receive a
cup of sake. During the Harai ceremony it is not convenient to visit for Mairi.
Mairi means a visit on your own or with your family, without having a ceremony. We created timeslots of 30
minutes for Mairi at 11:30, 12:30, 14:00, 14:30, 15:00 and 15:30.
Kindly have a look at the time schedule below and select your timeslot. Use the contactform to make your
reservation. Green is free, red is already occupied. The schedule changes accordingly.
During your personal visit you can get Omamori, Ofuda, or Ema and try your luck with Omikuji. More Info.
Please note that we do not accept mailorders for Omamori and Ofuda. These are available again in Spring.
