Ichihime Shrine
Ichihime Shrine（市比賣神社） is dedicated to the five goddesses.It is said that the shrine was first built in 795 as a guardian shrine. It was revered by successive emperors.
Since all the deities are female, the shrine is especially beneficial to women and is known as a “shrine to ward off bad luck for women.
Women are given a “women’s good luck charm” and a doll-shaped “hime-mikuji” to wish for their happiness.
To get to Ichihiru Shrine from Kyoto Station, it is about a 7-minute bus ride or a 15-minute walk (1.2 km).
