 During the year-end and New Year's holidays, you are likely to drop by temples and shrines for any number of reasons. At such times, we are thankful for ramen stores that are open nearby. Pork bone soup, tsukemen (noodles with dipping sauce), seafood-based noodles, etc. that soak into your frozen body.... Here are some of the best ramen restaurants near famous temples and shrines!

 Osechi (New Year's dishes) are a staple of the New Year's season, but after eating them for several days, you may get tired of them. If you want something warm and hearty ......, ramen is the answer. Fortunately, there are many restaurants near temples and shrines that are open during the year-end and New Year holidays. You can enjoy a bowl of "New Year's Eve Ramen" or a bowl of the owner's specialty to pray for good fortune on your way home from a New Year's visit to temples and shrines.
