Whatever the faith or whoever they're devoted to, shrines have a way of making you reflect. Visit Umenomiya Shrine and share a quiet moment with the locals.
This sacred place is on the to-do lists of many visitors to Ukyo Ward. But Umenomiya Shrine isn't the only highlight in the area. Kiyomizu Temple, Nijō Castle, and Kyoto Imperial Palace are some other interesting attractions nearby.
