Information about Hatsumode, your first visit to the jinja in 2026
Yamakage Shinto Holland Saigu, Windroosplein 184 in Amsterdam
welcomes you to make a fresh start in the New Year.
Only on New Year’s Day we are open from 11 am till 5 pm.
Regrettably, we cannot accept reservations for Hatsumode on other
days in January.
For a visit in person you 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 14:00.
The Harai ceremony lasts 20 minutes and costs 20 euro per family or
10 euro per person. Harai includes Shinshu Haitai, sharing sake with
kami.
Mairi is not possible during the Harai ceremony.
We added an extra HARAI at 15.00
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, 13:30, 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.
