The "Shuni-e" (Water-Drawing) is a traditional event held every year on the second Sunday of February at Todai-ji Temple in Nara City. During the Shuni-e, participants run a distance of about 500 meters from the Nandaimon Gate to the Niigatsu-do Hall, praying for the removal of bad luck and good health. Participants can draw and drink water at the Niigatsu-do Hall, which is known as the "water-drawing" ritual. The Shuni-e is an ancient event that has been continued since the Nara period, providing an opportunity for many people to experience Japanese traditions and culture. [Text: @AI, Translation: @AI]
