Peaceful pictorial place
Must visit market in specific days!
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.
Absolutely beautiful Shrine, especially on a sunny day in the summer. If you come to Kyoto, this is a must visit Shrine.
I like this place a lot,and the little forest around.
Peaceful place, not too many people.
This one is the oldest Shinto shrine in the ancient city. この古い町(京都)で最も古い神道の神社です Since prehistoric times it has preserved and transmit the legends relating to the birth of the shrine deity. 先史時代から保存されていて神社の神の誕生に関する伝説を伝えている場所です It is one of the oldest Shinto shrines in Japan and is one of the seventeen Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto which have been designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. Its real name is Kamowake Ikazuchi Shrine. 賀茂別雷神社 Wildlife in Kamigamo Shrine ● Little gutter where you can catch clay fish : The Omonoi stream leads into this little gutter as you go farther into the forest. That’s where you can catch some clay fish! この小さな水路へとつながっていて、ここでザリガニを捕まえて遊ぶことができます The forest around here is also very nice( Trans-word+ : TGM Kyoto Guide )
If you like themed mamori and you like horses you'll like this shrine. Plenty of wide open space because this is in the middle of the countryside. Don't come expecting any horse themed food though! I definitely didn't do that... at all... nope.
Nice place to travel especially for the first or third weekend of every month since there will be a local market.
An UNESCO world heritiage site. Beautiful area surrounding it, especially during cherry blossom season when the drive in feels like your surrounded in snow capped trees. Great monthly craft market too.
Nice sightseeing, nice atmosphere. I came here for participate Kasagake Shinji festival. It will be held on 21th October.
The UNESCO heritage shrine. The god is power of thunder and erase evil.
This holy shrine designated UNESCO world heritage is popular place for a wedding ceremony. Many celebrities have held their wedding there. Free entry! Far but worth a visit.
Was an amazing place
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!
Shinto shrine
A bit away from center, but the environment and craft market was worth the effort to get there !
A real white horse and a market that operates once a month open. Both excellent
GOOD
Got my shuin here. I felt relaxed walking around this shrine. Small cool stream running through the ground.
Hidden gem in Kyoto..beautiful indeed
Amazing place to enjoy the beautiful maple in the morning!And I highly recommend the special tasty Ko-yama Yusui Coffee which freshly brewed with Ko-yama Spring Water.
Amazing cherry blossoms viewing spot known for those in the know.
This is a beautiful shrine!
The atmosphere is tranquil here.
Amazing
I wanted to visit by watching the sand around the tourist information.I don't know how it is built, but you can watch it without getting tired. The babbling grounds of the precincts are also clean, and the former Yamashiro Kuninomiya shrine has the distinctive character.There is a place name called Iwakura in the vicinity, but it may be due to the sacred stage.
I visited here on 16th Jan 2019 to see “Musha Sinji”, one of ceremonies in winter.Kamigamo shrine is one of the oldest shrine in Kyoto and has divine beauty and dignity.The river flows throughout the precinct, which can make us feel refreshing.
Great shirne in Kyoto.
Nice place to visit
Handy works market very nice
Stumbled upon this gorgeous place while cycling. Turned into a highlight of Kyoto. Very nature oriented with a calming and pleasant atmosphere.
Beautiful shrine! I lived on the other side of the parking lot and had a wonderful view of the southend of this location. Wonderful little small trails take you up a hill that provides a great view of the neighborhood.
Relaxing place and nice details.,
Beautiful large shrine with often has horse riding and archery events on. The landscaping is great, with Japanese maple trees littering the stream that passes through the temple
I have no clue what the guy said, not very English accommodating, but you get the picture. Very big, very old, very beautiful!
Cozy place, not as famous but also not as crowded. Highly recommended for those who want to avoid the crowds.
a few tourists herenothing special but good to hanging arounda little bit far
Quite good
Kyoto. Something so mysterious about this city.There is an aura of the divinity here. Where does it come from ?It's people.Life in this city is still living accorning to ancient traditions thatmake nonsense to me. However, thanks to this tradition we can enjoy the things about KYOTO.
Nice little shrine
Such a good temple to visit😊
Nice
Beautiful shrines, but sadly a newpainted entrance to the temple which felt like it diden't fit the old temple.
A beautiful place worth visiting, with the two shrines, and beautiful grounds with a running creek and traditional style bridges crossing the creek. We were lucky to be there on a Sunday when they had a huge market running. A great experience
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.
Attended a great flea market on the temple grounds and came on a lucky day where I saw a wedding ceremony at the temple. A tranquil place.
It’s a very peaceful Shinto shrine with tiny white rocks layering most of its paths. Most tourists won’t go here. There’s a small stream running across the area, making lovely sounds and its tranquil. People are really kind. We really feel the essence of Japanese culture here.
Beautiful and serene.
Though it's full of history, some of the staff are also full of themselves.
