Toshikoshi in Kyoto

Hi!

I would like to learn about one or two things about going through the new year's day in Japan. By the end of this December, I will be in Kyoto.

1) I would like to experience the Joya no Kane in Chion-in Temple during the eve. Is there any information of when the entrance for that will open and close? I would love to be at the front row (not necessarily at the first line, but close enough at least), what time should I get there?

2) For the Hatsumode, the one I am planning to visit is the Fushimi Inari Taisha and I will do it on January 1st. I know it will be extremely crowded, but I would like to get some feedback from those who know well or had experienced it before, just how crowded it can be? Like, how about if I arrive there very early in the morning, say at 5 or 6? Or even at 4? Will I still be up for a long long queue?

Thanks!

This is in regards to Jyoyanokane at Chion-in Temple as below:
16：30　Closing for prayers on the day
19：00　starting lining up for the first ring at the Black Gate
20：30　The Black Gate opens and prayers start entering.
22：30　If you want to hear the sound of bell at noon, you should line up. This may be the time limit for
lining up.
around 22：40 Joyanokane starts.
23：00 The Black Gate closes.

Good luck!
