Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"!

This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video".
Today, I would like to introduce "Shingo @shingo_camera" post "Kyoto City, Cherry Blossoms of Rokusonno Shrine."

The contrast between the pale cherry blossoms and the red bridge is impressive.

Rokusonno Ujinja Shrine, located in Minami-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, is one of the "Three Shrines of Genji" dedicated to Rokusonō Ōkami (Minamoto Keiki).
It is also known for the benefits of prosperous offspring, good marriage fulfillment, and love fulfillment.

The Rokusonou Shrine in the small precincts is a well-known spot for cherry blossoms. Somei Yoshino and mountain cherry blossoms are in full bloom. The best time to see them is usually around late March ~ early April.
The highlight is the red lanterns lined up on both sides after passing through the torii gate, the cherry blossoms blooming on it, and the popular photo spot. In mid-April, wisteria flowers add color.
Also, since the Rokusonou Shrine is located along the railroad tracks, if the timing is right, you can take three shots of the bullet train, cherry blossoms, and torii gates.

The Taiko Bridge in the center of the precincts is said to have a good relationship when crossed, and is also called the "Bridge of Love".

There are two types of red seals of Rokusonou Shrine, and you can get them at the awarding office.
There are also Enmusubi koi (carp) protection and Kamiya mikuji, making it ideal for souvenirs.
