A good location to catch the activity is along the main approach to Kanda Myojin Shrine, since most of the mikoshi eventually make their way to the shrine. From around 8:00 to 17:30, the various neighborhoods with their respective mikoshi take turns to enter the shrine, resulting in streets full of vibrant colors, infectious festival music and a joyful atmosphere. Some neighborhoods in the Nihonbashi area do not visit the Kanda Myojin Shrine and instead parade their mikoshi only around their local districts.
