[2025 Kyoto Attraction] Travel Guide for Okazaki Shrine (Updated May)

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Kyoto's famous rabbit shrine, the Totenno Okazaki Shrine, was founded as early as the Heian period. The most special thing about it is that the messenger of god is a rabbit, so there are many rabbit statues and paintings in the area, which makes people feel particularly friendly and cute. Okazaki Shrine is not only a photo spot, but also very popular because it is very effective in praying for pregnancy, safe delivery and marriage. The messenger rabbit can be seen everywhere in the Okazaki Shrine, and visitors usually look for and take pictures of them one by one, as if they were collecting a Pokémon illustrated book. The rabbit at the Temizuya is made of black granite and is commonly known as the fertility-seeking rabbit. The main hall is guarded by a rabbit with one hand raised. On the left is the fortune-bringing rabbit with its right hand raised, and on the right is the relationship-making rabbit with its left hand raised. The guardian messengers on both sides of the shrine are a male and a female stone rabbit, and they look quite adorable. #KYOTO TRAVEL #Okayazaki Shrine #Rabbit Shrine

I visited Okazaki Shrine, a shrine filled with rabbits that look great on social media. I couldn't stop taking photos of the rabbits scattered around the shrine grounds, whose expressions seemed to change depending on the angle. In the past, the shrine grounds and the surrounding area were home to wild rabbits, and it has long been said that rabbits are messengers of the local deity. Okazaki Shrine is worshiped as a god of fertility, as the enshrined deity is blessed with children and rabbits are prolific.

The grounds of Okazaki Shrine, also known as "Rabbit Shrine," are full of rabbits 🐇💗 It is one of the shrines built by Emperor Kanmu on the four sides of Heian-kyo, and is called Totenno because it is located to the east of the capital where the sun rises (the direction of the rabbit) 🌱 The guardian lion rabbits, not lion dogs, that greeted us immediately had adorable expressions and shapes 🫶🏼 And the line of rabbits lined up in front of the main hall are actually containers for fortune slips 👀✨ Fortune slips The sweets themselves were in the rabbit's butt, and they were lined up without taking the container home🐾 The size was indescribably cute🥺🤍 It's said that this shrine has the power to grant good luck in matchmaking, fertility, and safe childbirth⛩ The bus is very convenient to access, and there is a bus stop called "Okayama Shrine Mae"🚏 It was only a few seconds walk from the bus stop👍🏻 I recommend going in the morning so you can take your time taking photos🌿 #KyotoTourism#Shrine #PowerSpot #Matchmaking #777

It was named Higashitenno because it is located to the east of the capital where the sun rises (in the direction of the rabbit). ･･━━･･━━･･━━･･━━･･━━･･━━･･ ▷▶︎Access 🚌: Get off at the city bus stop "Okazaki Jinja-mae" or "Higashi Tenno-cho" Parking: None (there is a paid parking lot opposite the shrine) ▷▶︎Shrine information Shrine stamp: 300 yen ･･━━･･━━･･━━･･━━･･━━･･━━･･ Shrine information introduced by a shrine lover This time, we will introduce Okazaki Shrine, a popular tourist spot in Kyoto that is full of rabbits. First of all, as soon as you enter the shrine, you will be greeted by pure white koma-usagi. There is also a beckoning rabbit in front of the main hall. There are rabbits in various other places as well. Why not try looking for hidden rabbits? Many women and couples visit Okazaki Shrine to pray for matchmaking and safe childbirth. It is especially popular as a shrine for matchmaking. The name "matchmaking" comes from the fact that the deity Hayasu-no-Mikoto, who is enshrined here, married Inadahime-no-Mikoto. The shrine is also known as a shrine for granting children and safe childbirth because the two deities gave birth to eight children, three daughters and five sons. The rabbits at Okazaki Shrine have been treasured as messengers of the local deity since ancient times, as the area is a habitat for wild rabbits. Rabbits can give birth to about ten puppies at a time, so they are also associated with granting children and safe childbirth. The last image shown is a rabbit statue of a child-granting rabbit made of black granite. The rabbit looks up at the moon and is full of energy. It is said that if you pour water on it, rub its belly and pray, you will be blessed with children and have an easy childbirth. #DomesticTravel #Kyoto #Shrine #OkazakiShrine #Matchmaking

The official name of Okazaki Shrine is "Totenno Okazaki Shrine". It was founded in the Heian period and is a shrine with a long history. The deity of this shrine is a rabbit, so there are many rabbit statues and paintings in the precinct, and it has a friendly nickname - "Rabbit Shrine". This place is not only a photo spot, but also very popular because it is very effective in praying for pregnancy, safe delivery and marriage. Okazaki Shrine is one of the shrines built in the four directions of Heian-kyo when Japan moved its capital from Nagaoka-kyo to Kyoto in 794. Because it is located in the east "mao" direction, it is also called the Eastern Heavenly King. Later, Emperor Go-Daigo bestowed the sacred steps and sacred treasures of Shoichi on Okazaki Shrine. Although the buildings in the territory were destroyed many times due to wars, the emperor and generals also carried out repairs and reconstructions.

The "Okazaki Shrine" located in Kyoto is also known as the "Rabbit Shrine". The official name of Okazaki Shrine is "Higashitenno Okazaki Shrine". Therefore, there are many rabbit statues and paintings in the shrine, so it is also known as the "Rabbit Shrine". The figures of the messenger rabbits can be seen everywhere in the shrine, and each one has a different look and expression. After visiting the main hall, you can walk around the grounds and look for the rabbits.

Address: 51 Higashitenno-cho Okazaki, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto Tourist area: Nanzenji area (east of Kyoto, a little east of Heian Shrine) Other tourist spots around Okazaki Shrine: Heian Shrine, Nanzenji, Ginkakuji, Philosopher's Path If you're looking for a cute shrine with rabbits as its motif, then Okazaki Shrine is the place to go! Instead of the lion-dog guardians that you often find at the entrance to shrines, this shrine has lion-rabbit guardians!

After praying, I drew a rabbit fortune! I got a great fortune for the first time in about three years~ It seems like a lot of people line them up and go home, but I brought them home to use as interior decorations!

Okazaki Shrine, also known as the Rabbit Shrine, is a shrine that is said to bring good luck in matchmaking, safe childbirth, and fertility. ^ ^ It's a small shrine, but the rabbit fortune slips and votive plaques were very cute 🐇🤍 📍 51 Higashitenno-cho Okazaki, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto City 🚘 There is a paid parking lot across the street #Shrine #Kyoto

- Kyoto surprisingly has two Hotel Okura properties—one located centrally near City Hall, and the other on the Heian Shrine side, known as Okazaki Bettei. The styles of the two are completely different. The one near City Hall somewhat resembles its Tokyo counterpart, while Okazaki Bettei feels much more modern. However, anything bearing the Okura name is synonymous with reliability. For this trip, I deliberately chose Okazaki Bettei (the word "Bettei" itself sounds grand). The real reason was that my itinerary those days conveniently revolved around that area—a natural choice. The compact drop-off area at the entrance is easy to miss. In the morning, there were no staff to greet guests, and after getting out of the car, I had to walk through a long corridor. Coincidentally, it was snowing in Kyoto, and the hotel had drawn cute little snowmen in the garden—a charming touch. Nearby are the Higashi Honganji Okazaki Betsuin and Okazaki Shrine. The front desk mentioned morning temple-waking activities, though I knew I'd never wake up in time. Another memorable detail was Okazaki Bettei's nighttime curfew, with separate glass doors on each floor—a first for me. Apart from the minor inconvenience of the curfew, the main drawback compared to similarly priced Ace Hotel is its relatively remote location. For tourists, it almost necessitates relying on taxis, which isn't very convenient.

📍Kyoto Prefecture Okazaki Shrine, famous as the "Rabbit Shrine" Since wild rabbits used to live in this area, rabbits became messengers of the local deity, and the grounds are filled with rabbits, such as the Koma Usagi and Chozuya. The charms and fortune-telling slips are also rabbit-themed. Since rabbits are prolific, it is a popular spot for praying for fertility and safe childbirth. Especially during the zodiac period, there are long lines... Eikando Temple is nearby, so we went there during the autumn leaves season and while waiting for lunch. It's just the right size and compact size to walk to! ⚫︎Access Get off at Higashitenno-cho on the city bus and walk for about 3 minutes ⚫︎Admission fee Free _ _ _ _ _ Locals and tourists alike should definitely take note of this 🔖 #Kyoto #KyotoTrip #DomesticTrip #0YenTrip
