Young Tokyoites gathering near the 333-meter-high illuminated landmark Tokyo Tower celebrate the New Year after they released hundreds of balloons in the air.
Japanese worshippers strike the "Joya no Kane" (the bells on New Year's Eve) at Zojoji temple in Tokyo. The bells in Buddist temples in Japan are rung each year to announce the passing of old year and the coming of the new, beginning on New Year's Eve and continuing into New Year's Day.
