I really enjoyed our visit here. You can freely walk around the area and there is the possibility of paying a fee to visit the inside of one of the shrines but we did not do it.
The outdoor area was beautiful enough with vibrant orange colors and was very different from other shrines we have seen so far.
Make sure not to miss a lovely stair with Torii which can be found on the left end side of the entrance lawn facing the exit.
I stumbled upon Kamigamo while exploring the area, and I'm so glad I did. From the moment I walked through the gates, I felt a sense of calm wash over me. The shrine's tranquil atmosphere is palpable - it's like the world slows down and all that's left is the gentle rustling of leaves and the soft chirping of birds.
what really drew me in was the sense of peace that permeates every inch of the grounds. I spent hours wandering the paths, taking in the vibrant flowers and lush greenery.
What struck me most, though, was the way the shrine seems to quiet the mind. I felt my worries and cares melting away with each passing moment, replaced by a deep sense of calm and clarity.
If you're looking for a place to unwind, reflect, or simply escape the chaos of everyday life.
it was a nice place to sighsee, there was no one.
The place is huge and a lot of interesting things to see. You can feel nature and mystical history vibe to the place.
We were there on a Monday at 2pm, and there was almost no one. It was great and we enjoyed the place a lot.
We didn’t have enough time to do this shrine justice and will definitely return the next time we are in the area, but what we did see was quite impressive. The grounds are quite extensive and I would think you would need a couple hours to enjoy what this shrine has to offer. We loved the beautifully thatched rooves and general atmosphere.
Visited on a Monday morning. There were not many people in the temple area. Souvenirs are available for different needs e.g. health, work, luck etc.
