The seven lucky gods of Fukagawa: Ensuring a good year to come Dec. 29, 2020 06:00 am JST Dec. 29, 2020 | 06:41 am JST TOKYO

In Japan, one popular New Year’s tradition calculated to bring good luck and assure a good year to come is a “pilgrimage” to a fixed set of shrines and temples to worship each of the seven lucky gods. Perhaps a pilgrimage is a good excuse to get out of doors at New Year’s when the weather is usually fine. This year, when everyone wants to get out but also needs to socially distance and stay safe, a walk with brief stops at shrines or temples might be just the ticket.
