2011 marked the 1300th anniversary of enshrinement of Inari Okami God on Mt.Inari, which is the furthest south of the 36 peaks of Mt.Higashiyama. Senbon Torii Gates (thousand torii gates) make for fascinating hikes. There is also the Omokaru-ishi (fortunetelling stone) for estimating when your wish might come true.
This Jizo is believed to ease tooth pain. Every year on Cavity Protection Day (June 4th), a Buddhist ritual is held.
Jakuchu Ito, a painter of the Edo Period, took up residence at the temple and sketched the Buddha from his birth to death and the stone Buddhist statues were completed based on the sketches more than 10 years after he began.

This temple had been formerly known as Gokurakuji Temple, one of the settings for The Tale of Genji. You can enjoy the colorful Niomon Gate and the pagoda which is one of the oldest Tahoto pagodas in Kyoto City. The route from the Somon Gate past Hondo to the stone steps with gentle slope on Mt.Shichimen is a lovely passage.


Including Emperor Fushimi, 12 Emperors have been entombed in this imperial mausoleum.
The main building was built in 1908 and it is one of the prime examples of western classical architecture with red bricks representing the Meiji Period. You can enjoy the classical design of the exterior and the approach to the building.

This shrine was founded in 203. It is renowned for the Kakeuma Shinji (acrobatic horseback riding festival) held on May 5 and as the birthplace of the Iris Festival. The Hydrangeas and the spring water from a well called ‘Fuji no mizu’ are also famous.


It is said that this temple is located at the former site of the villa of Fukakusano Shosho. It tells us the bittersweet romantic tale that he had visited beloved Komachi Onono until he died. There is also one of the largest wooden Buddha statues (height of approx. 5.3m).

It is surrounded by a bamboo forest and grove. There is a pair of guardian dragon statues. It is said that your wishes come ture by writing them on kanaebina (paper doll).

You can enjoy a stroll through this beautiful bamboo forest running along Mt.Inari. The path through this quiet area is dotted with waterfalls and hillocks.


There are many waterfalls considered sacred in Mt. Inari. Kobo-no-taki Falls is also one of them.
From ancient times, it has been said that this god protects from illnesses. There are two stone Torii gates designed by the Japanese-style painter, Insho Domoto.

Built in March of 2010 near the top of Mt.Oiwa. On a clear day, you can see even the buildings in Osaka City.


On the grounds, you can see Kaizankousenhi (Important Cultural Asset) which is a well known Chinese styled copper monument made in 1711. It lies next to the grave of Enshu Kobori renowned tea person and garden creator who lived during the Edo Period. In the main temple, the images of Shaka Sanzon and Bishamonten are installed.

After Fushimi Castle was built, this pass from Kyoto to Nara via Uji (Nara Kaido Road) was full with travelers.

This replica of the castle keep was made in 1964, when Fushimi-Momoyama Castle Land theme park opened, and is loved by many people as a symbol of Fushimi.
Since the Heian Period, this shrine has had delicious spring water called Goko-sui. This temple is also associated with easy deliveries during childbirth. The front gate and the main hall are designated as Important Cultural Assets.
