A fantastic yearly event, the highlight of which involves a falconry display on January 3 from 11am and 2pm. Lion dance performances will also be held at 11am and 2pm on January 2 at Uchibori Square. If birds and lions aren't your bag, of course, the hearty New Year food ought to tempt you - we've already got our order in for some charcoal grilled dango mochi and hot amazake.
The park is closed on January 1.
