Detail InformationEdit

Kamo Shrine is a general term for an important Shinto sanctuary complex on both banks of the Kamo River in northeast Kyoto. It is centered on two shrines. The two shrines, an upper and a lower, lie in a corner of the old capital which was known as the “devil’s gate” due to traditional geomancy beliefs that the north-east corner brought misfortune. Because the Kamo River runs from the north-east direction into the city, the two shrines along the river were intended to prevent demons from entering the city.
The Kamo Shrine encompasses what are now independent but traditionally associated jinja or shrines: the Kamo-wakeikazuchi Shrine in Kyoto’s Kita Ward, and the “Kamo-mioya Shrine'” in Sakyo Ward. They are amongst the “Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto” which have been designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
