Kawai Shrine, within the grounds of Shimogamo Shrine near Demachiyanagi Station, is a shrine with a particular appeal to women. We call it as Beauty Shrine. They have hand mirror-shaped EMA to pray to get beauty and good looking. We can't miss this shrine for Kyoto Beauty Tour!
Shimogamo Shrine is just next to Kawai Shrine! One of seventeen UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Kyoto, the shrine complex is surrounded by the Tadasu no Mori forest that shelters visitors in a world of green. There is a small shrine called "Aioi no Yashiro" inside the Shimogamo Shrine and this shrine is dedicated to the god of good marriage and the guardian of engagement, Kamumusub-no-Kami. People come both to pray and to pick a fortune slip based on lines in the Tale of Genji, hoping their marriage will fare better than the protagonist’s. The romance lingers in the trees nearby, where one mysterious holly is actually the product of two intertwined trees. This “Renri no Sakaki” tree is the subject of one of Kyoto’s Seven Myths.
