[edit] Summary

  • en:"Tori-no-Ichi (酉の市)", also known as "Cock Fair", holding at every Otori-shrine (鷲神社, shrine of Cocks) in Japan on the "Day of Cock" every November (based on the Oriental Zodiac calendar and we have 2 or 3 days of the "Day of Cock" in November, which depends on the calendar of every year).
The Fair is also famous as "Rake Market", selling the big ornamental rakes (as you can see on the above image), for making a wish "to rake the good luck".
