As the head office of Atago Shrine, [Atago Shrine] is enshrined on Mt. Atago, the highest peak in Kyoto City.

[Hyuga Daijingu] is the “Ise-san of Kyoto” that people frequently visited in the days when you could only visit Ise Jingu once in your life. The inner shrine is divided into outer and inner shrines, and the inner shrine enshrines Amaterasu Omikami, the same deity as Ise Jingu. There are many power spots such as "Yogouiwa" where the god descends, "Ama no Iwato" which is said to ward off misfortunes when you pass through it, and "Asahi Izumi" where it is said that the plague was quickly cured.

Known as ``Tanuki Mite Fudo-san,'' this is a place of deep prayers for the common people. Fudo Myo-o, the principal image enshrined in the main hall, is famous for its benefits such as warding off evil, preventing cancer, and curing illnesses. It is also said that the raccoon dog brings prosperity in business and good luck, as it leads to 'outside others'.
The main hall is on the stage of a wooden structure reminiscent of Kiyomizu Temple. A stage has been set up to surround Fudo Myoo, who was already in the cave.
Even from a distance, you can feel the sharp glint in Fudo Myoo's eyes, and you won't be able to take your eyes off it. It is said to have benefits such as warding off evil, stopping cancer, and curing illness.
