Jindaiji Daruma Ichi
The Daruma Ichi (the Daruma Market) is held annually at Jindaiji on March 3 and 4. This is one the three largest Daruma Ichi in the Kanto region.
Vendors from around Japan gather at this event to sell Daruma for good fortune. As you can see that the Daruma comes in many sizes.
You may or may not know about the Daruma. One eye is drawn in at purchase. At that time, you make your wish or attaining your goal. It could be health, prosperity or whatever else.
Once your goal or wish has been attained. The other eye is drawn in.
