Visitors arrive from more than 70 countries,

People clad in ancient Japanese court outfits have performed a time-honored ball-kicking game to mark the New Year at a shrine in the western city of Kyoto. The custom called kemari is said to have been played by noblemen in the Heian Period that lasted from the late 8th to the 12th century.
