What is the Dainichi Mikoshi in Genshin Impact?

Dainichi Mikoshi is one of the sub-areas in Enkanomiya that players can unlock and explore once they have completed the world quest The Still Water’s Flow. 

The name Dainichi Mikoshi actually belongs to the artificial sun created by a historical figure called Abe Yoshihisa. You activate the Dainichi Mikoshi for the first time during The Subterranean Trials of Drake and Serpent questline.

After that, you can use the Day-Night mechanisms found all around Enkanomiya to remotely activate the Dainichi Mikoshi to switch between Whitenight and Evernight.

As we mentioned earlier, the people of Enkanomiya used the Day-Night mechanisms and the Dainichi Mikoshi to protect themselves from the Dragonheir of the Depths before the arrival of Orabashi.

That’s it for now. Make sure to check out our coverage on the Genshin Impact version 2.4 update.
