It is said that if you visit Asakusa Kannon on one of these two days, you will receive the same benefits as if you had visited the temple for 46,000 days, thus the Hozuki Market is also known as the &#8220;46,000 Days&#8221;.\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" height=\"57\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/assets\/images\/obj-illust_27.png\" title=\"\" width=\"199\"><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"js-way\"><span class=\"ja\"><span>Event Summary<\/span><\/span><span class=\"en\">Outline<\/span><\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>Location<\/th>\n<td>\nSensoji Temple 2-3-1 Asakusa, Taito-ku, Tokyo\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Access<\/th>\n<td>\n5 minutes from Asakusa Station on the Tobu Skytree Line, 5 minutes from Asakusa Station on the Tokyo Metro Ginza Line, 5 minutes from Asakusa Station on the Tsukuba Express Line, 5 minutes from Asakusa Station on the Toei Subway Asakusa Line<\/p>\n<div class=\"elem-sec_01 mrg-style_21\">\n<iframe allowfullscreen=\"\" height=\"350\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/maps.google.co.jp\/maps?output=embed&#038;q=35.713428,139.796664&#038;z=15\" style=\"border:0;\" width=\"100%\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Holding period<\/th>\n<td>\nSaturday, July 9 &#8211; Sunday, July 10, 2022\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Opening Hours<\/th>\n<td>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t6:00\uff5e17:00\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Contact Us<\/th>\n<td>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t03-3842-0181\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th scope=\"row\">Related Links<\/th>\n<td>\n<a class=\"link-style_03\" href=\"https:\/\/www.senso-ji.jp\/annual_event\/13.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Official Site<\/a> <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Holding period 2022.07.09 \u301c 2022.07.10 Hozuki Market at Sensoji Temple, a summer tradition in Asakusa The origin of the hozuki market held at Sensoji Temple is said to date back to around 1764-72.
