This article takes readers on a walk to visit Japan’s seven lucky gods at shrines and temples in the Minato neighborhood of Tokyo.  Such walks are a popular new year’s activity, said to bring luck and fortune to participants. This walk can only be done for that purpose between New Year’s Day and Coming of Age Day (January 8, in 2018).  (Archived article – Originally published by Japan Today.)
