What to expect

Yasaka Shrine is one of the most famous shrines in Kyoto, known as the site of the Gion Festival. Passing through the vermilion-lacquered Nishiro-mon gate, visitors are greeted by the main hall built in the unique Gion-zukuri style. The main deity, Susanoo-no-Mikoto, is well-known for his good luck in warding off bad luck, bringing good luck, and prospering in business. The grounds are dotted with beautiful cherry trees and camphor trees, creating a gorgeous scene in spring. Other highlights include the Ekishinsha Shrine, which is dedicated to praying for the eradication of epidemics, and the Maiten (dance hall), where miko (shrine maidens) perform dances. Yasaka Shrine is a special place where history and nature combine to enchant visitors.
