A shrine with a connection to rabbits: World Heritage Site Ujikami Shrine

I went to Ujikami Shrine in mid-November to pray. This shrine is related to rabbits, so there are goshuin (stamps), omamori (amulet), and omikuji (fortune slips). The shrine office was packed with cute rabbits. Uji is also famous for being related to the Tale of Genji, so the [One Wish Fulfillment Wish Doll (500 yen)] with a beautiful design reminiscent of the Tale of Genji was also popular. If you write one wish in an envelope and give it to a shrine maiden, she will offer it to the main shrine and pray for it. ■Address 59 Ujiyamada, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture ■Business hours 9:00-16:30 ■Access 10 minutes walk from Uji Station on the Keihan Uji Line #Kyoto sightseeing #Uji sightseeing #Autumn leaves #Uji #Autumn trip #Shrine tour #Shrines and temples #Shrine
