The shrine buildings are colorful replicas, reduced to a two-thirds scale, of the Imperial Court of the Heian period (794-1185).<br \/>\nThe vast garden here, behind the shrine, is a fine place for wonder and particularly lovely during the cherry- blossom season. With its large pond, weeping cherry blossom and Chinese-inspired bridge, the garden is a tribute to the style that was popular in the Heian period. It is well-known for 150 double cherry blossoms.<\/p>\n<p>\u3010Information\u3011<br \/>\nAddress:<br \/>\n97, Okazaki Nishitenno Cho, Sakyo Ku, Kyoto, 606-8341<br \/>\nAccess:<br \/>\n\u30fbA 5-minute walk from \u201cOkazaki-koen, Bijyutsukan, Heianjingu mae\u201d bus stop on the Kyoto Bus #5 at Kyoto Station<br \/>\n\u30fbA 10-minute walk from \u201cHigashiyama\u201d Sta. on the Subway Tozai line<br \/>\nTime:<br \/>\n8:30~18:00(March 15 to September 30th)<br \/>\nAdmission Fee:<br \/>\nFree for the shrine \/ Garden 600yen per an adult, 300yen per a child<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"style5b\">Okazaki Shrine<\/h5>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kyonaka-gozan.kyoto\/media\/koi\/sites\/10\/20200327-2-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3257\" \/><br \/>\nIt takes about 10 minutes to get to Okazaki shrine from Heian Jingu Shrine. Okazaki Shrine has been a place of worship for more than 1,200 years. Though the shrine grounds are relatively small, there are lots of rabbits to be found. It is symbolized as the fertility and people come to pray to the shrine &#8211; the god of matchmaking, marriage, and easy childbirth.<br \/>\nThe weeping cherry blossom in front of the main hall is amazing. <\/p>\n<p>\u3010Information\u3011<br \/>\nAddress:<br \/>\n51, Okazaki Higashitenno Cho, Sakyo Ku, Kyoto, 606-8332<br \/>\nAccess:<br \/>\n\u30fbA 3-minute walk from \u201cHigashitenno Cho\u201d bus stop on the Kyoto Bus #5 at Kyoto Station<br \/>\n\u30fbA 18-minute walk from \u201cKeage\u201d Sta. on the Subway Tozai line<br \/>\nTime:<br \/>\n8:30~17:00<br \/>\nAdmission Fee:<br \/>\nFree<\/p>\n<h5 class=\"style5b\">Konkaikomyoji Temple<\/h5>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/kyonaka-gozan.kyoto\/media\/koi\/sites\/10\/20200327-3-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3258\" \/><br \/>\nKonkaikomyoji Temple, better known as Kurodani, is a superb and rarely visited (by tourists) temple on Yoshida-Yama Hill, a short walk from the Path of Philosophy or a 1-minute walk from the Okazaki shrine. This shrine is a so-called hidden spot because it\u2019s off the main Northern Higashiyama tourist route.
