Imperial Household Agency to hold general public visits on Emperor's birthday. His Majesty the Emperor will visit the Imperial Palace with the Empress and other members of the Imperial Family three times in the morning.
The event is expected to accommodate up to 20,000 people at a time, and if there are many visitors, they will be guided to a special registration office in the afternoon. In response to the Noto Peninsula earthquake, the Imperial Household Agency had canceled the New Year's public visitation scheduled for the following day, January 2.
