History
As a branch shrine of Yasaka Shrine in Nakagyo-ku, this sacred place has gathered the faith of local people since ancient times. The power I perceive from this shrine protects the town from plague and disaster, bringing stability and prosperity to people's lives. In the heart of Kyoto, it continues to shine with quiet but powerful light.
