Easy to get to from the city , spacious with lots of greenery. Very good to view autumn leaves
Kyoto Dream Trips (12/31/2019)
2020 is the "Year of the Rat", Large Ema at Various Shrines in Kyoto. Rat is the first in the 12-year-cycle of Chinese zodiac signs. People born in the year of rat are generally born with the zodiac rat characteristics. They are believed to be very industrious and thrifty, diligent and positive. They love to enshrine and collect. They have a keen intuition and can foretell the danger. They can deal with the money carefully and have a good financial luck.

Nice shrine with a short bush walk. To boot there is a white horse that brings you luck. At new year's Hotsumode they take the white horse for a stroll to the temple prior to blessings. Worth the trip out there!

Amazing cherry blossoms viewing spot known for those in the know.

Visited on Jan 2nd and was surprised there was almost no line! Possibly because it was far away. It gets four stars for lack of buses that connect. But we made it. Not much food in the area either. But as for the shrine, great. This is an Ichinomiya shrine, along with Shimogamo. Both have beautiful grounds. I especially liked that this one was associated with Eto, or Zodiac animals. Instead of a normal shrine to pray at you should enter the main temple area find your Eto Chinese character for your birth year and pray only there. It made the hatsumode line very fast! And the charms are also all zodiac themed. Wonderful shrine.
