Ama-no-Iwato
〒607-8492 京都府京都市山科区日ノ岡夷谷町
One of the Moto-Ise Sanja (Three Shrines of the Former Ise), this shrine is enshrined clinging to the rock walls of a gorge. Located in a secluded sanctuary covered by giant rocks, clear streams, and ancient trees, it is known as a sacred ground where deities descended.
History
The shrine is located at the foot of Mount Iwato, the sacred body mountain where Amaterasu Omikami is said to have once descended. It features a mysterious atmosphere dotted with giant rocks, including the 'Misaiishi' (Stone Throne), where deities are said to have sat, and the 'Kaguraishi' (Kagura Stone), where Kagura dances were performed.

What visitors say
Located within the grounds of Hinokami Daijingū, this power spot is said to offer protection from misfortune and good fortune by crawling through the rock passage. Inside the cave, there is a small shrine that is cherished as a place of worship. Caution is advised on rainy days as the area can be slippery, but the surroundings are also part of a trail course, making it easy to visit while strolling.
