We made a field trip to the Kamigamo Shrine on Nov 11, 2014 as a part of the course on "Japanese Religion and Monotheism" of Doshisha University. We had a very precious occasion to see the grand renovation of the shrine including the top roof. Rev. Mitsutaka Inui has kindly guided us this year, too.
Kamigamo-Shrine (Kamo-wake-ikazuchi-Jinja) in the Kita Ward of Kyoto is the oldest Shinto shrine in the ancient city. Since prehistoric times Kamigamo-jinja has preserved and transmitted the legends relating to the birth of the shrine deity, Wakeikazuchi.
Ancient rituals which transmit faith in the divine mountan, Kamo Sai also known as Aoi Matsuri which started during the reign of Emperor Kinmei in 544, and the shrine buildings retaining the style of the early Heian Period, all convey the history of the province of Yamashiro (southern Kyoto Prefecture).
Most of the shrine complex (totaling 690,000m2) has been designated as Preservation Area of Historic Landscape by the municipal government and as a Historic Site by the national government. The area contains many large trees such as ichii oaks, suda chinquappins and weeping cherry trees.
Here, nature and cultural properties coexist in harmony. On December 17, 1994, Kamigamo-jinja was officially registered as a World Cultural Heritages Site in recognition of its importance as a monument of ancient Kyoto.
Kyoto, The capital of Japan, called Heiankyo, was established in 794. Kamo-wake-ikazuchi-Jinja, Kamo Mioyajinja, Toji Temple, Kiyomizu Temple and Enryakuji Temple first appeared in the new capital during this time.
Kyoto is known worldwide as a treasure house of cultural properties, including National Treasures, Special Historical Sites and Special Places of Scenic Beauty which represent each period of the city's 1200-year history from its establishment at the beginning of the Heian Period. Infact, Kyoto possesses the largest concentration of cultural properties in Japan.

Performed at Kamigamo Shrine in October, Kasagake Archery is one of the three original styles of archery performed for the entertainment of shrine deities in Japan. The nature of the shooting at this event harkens back to the practice drills performed by archers in the days of Japan’s warring period, recreated today as part of a religious offering. This ritual is performed by participants from the Takeda-ryu school of mounted archery, which has a long and interesting history. As opposed to the more commonly performed yabusame ritual where the archers shoot only at one fixed target, the archers at this event take aim at five targets- three at shoulder-height and two closer to the ground to simulate more realistic military maneuvers on the battlefield. Scores and hits are announced after each run, and riders with the highest score advance to the second round, where the targets shrink in size until a winner is crowned. Watching the riders race down the trail while drawing back their arrows before letting them fly was exhilarating, especially when they found their mark! Take a look for yourself and marvel at the beauty of the horses and riders at Kamigamo Shrine’s Kasagake Shinji!

In the style of lavish poetry parties held during the Heian period, Kamigamo Shrine is host to the Kamo Kyokusui no En each year at 13:00 on the second Sunday in April. Based on a particular event from the shrine's history, hosted by Priest Shigeyasu in 1182, the Kamo Kyokusui no En is held in a winding stream garden in the shrine's southeast grounds, the vibrant spring moss and shrine hall decorated with crimson umbrellas and sprigs of flowers. These days, the event is presided over by the Saiō-dai, a woman representing unmarried imperial princesses who historically served as honorary shrine priestesses. Five poets, four from the Reizei-ke Shigure-tei Bunko organization and one selected by contest submission, arrange themselves along the stream and receive the poetry theme, 2016's being "hana wo matsu", ("waiting on flowers"). As young children guide small boats of sake through the water the poets compose poems and enjoy a drink. The final poems the poets select are later read aloud in chorus in the shrine hall, dedicated to the kami deities.

The Kasagake Festival is an amazing mounted archery demonstration held every year at the Kamigamo Shrine, in Kyoto, Japan.
This is one of the few events where you can see the ancient Samurai horseback archery skills in practice. The participants from the Japan Equestrian Archery Association; members of the Takeda School of Horseback Archery, wear traditional outfits from the Kamakura period.
The difference between Kasagake and Yabusame is than in Kasagake the archers aim at small targets called ko-kasagake, located near ground level on both sides of the horse. Another peculiarity of this event is the participation of female archers.

Kamigamo Shrine
Kamigamo Shrine (上賀茂神社, Kamigamo Jinja) is an important Shinto sanctuary on the banks of the Kamo River in north Kyoto, first founded in 678. Its formal name is the Kamo-wakeikazuchi Shrine (賀茂別雷神社, Kamo-wakeikazuchi jinja).
It is one of the oldest Shinto shrines in Japan and is one of the seventeen Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto which have been designated by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site. The term Kamo-jinja in Japanese is a general reference to Shimogamo Shrine and Kamigamo Shrine, the traditionally linked Kamo shrines of Kyoto. The Kamo-jinja serve the function of protecting Kyoto from malign influences.
The jinja name identifies the Kamo family of kami or deities who are venerated. The name also refers to the ambit of shrine's nearby woods, which are vestiges of the primeval forest of Tadasu no Mori. In addition, the shrine name references the area's early inhabitants, the Kamo clan, many of whom continue to live near the shrine their ancestors traditionally served.

Kasagake Shinji: Japanese Horseback Archery at Kamigamo Shrine
Performed at Kamigamo Shrine in October, Kasagake Archery is one of the three original styles of archery performed for the entertainment of shrine deities in Japan. The nature of the shooting at this event harkens back to the practice drills performed by archers in the days of Japan’s warring period, recreated today as part of a religious offering. This ritual is performed by participants from the Takeda-ryu school of mounted archery, which has a long and interesting history. As opposed to the more commonly performed yabusame ritual where the archers shoot only at one fixed target, the archers at this event take aim at five targets- three at shoulder-height and two closer to the ground to simulate more realistic military maneuvers on the battlefield. Scores and hits are announced after...

The nature of the shooting at this event harkens back to the practice drills performed by archers in the days of Japan’s warring period, recreated today as part of a religious offering. This ritual is performed by participants from the Takeda-ryu school of mounted archery, which has a long and interesting history. As opposed to the more commonly performed yabusame ritual where the archers shoot only at one fixed target, the archers at this event take aim at five targets- three at shoulder-height and two closer to the ground to simulate more realistic military maneuvers on the battlefield. Scores and hits are announced after each run, and riders with the highest score advance to the second round, where the targets shrink in size until a winner is crowned. Watching the riders race down the trail while drawing back their arrows before letting them fly was exhilarating, especially when they found their mark! Take a look for yourself and marvel at the beauty of the horses and riders at Kamigamo Shrine’s Kasagake Shinji!

In the style of lavish poetry parties held during the Heian period, Kamigamo Shrine is host to the Kamo Kyokusui no En each year at 13:00 on the second Sunday in April. Based on a particular event from the shrine's history, hosted by Priest Shigeyasu in 1182, the Kamo Kyokusui no En is held in a winding stream garden in the shrine's southeast grounds, the vibrant spring moss and shrine hall decorated with crimson umbrellas and sprigs of flowers. These days, the event is presided over by the Saiō-dai, a woman representing unmarried imperial princesses who historically served as honorary shrine priestesses. Five poets, four from the Reizei-ke Shigure-tei Bunko organization and one selected by contest submission, arrange themselves along the stream and receive the poetry theme, 2016's being "hana wo matsu", ("waiting on flowers"). As young children guide small boats of sake through the water the poets compose poems and enjoy a drink. The final poems the poets select are later read aloud in chorus in the shrine hall, dedicated to the kami deities.

Kyōto (京都) was the capital of Japan for over a millennium, and carries a reputation as its most beautiful city. However, visitors may be surprised by how much work they will have to do to see Kyoto's beautiful side. Most first impressions of the city will be of the urban sprawl of central Kyoto, around the ultra-modern glass-and-steel train station, which is itself an example of a city steeped in tradition colliding with the modern world.
Nonetheless, the persistent visitor will soon discover Kyoto's hidden beauty in the temples and parks which ring the city center, and find that the city has much more to offer than immediately meets the eye.
See in Kyoto, Japan
=================
Kyoto offers an incredible number of attractions for tourists, and visitors will probably need to plan an itinerary in advance in order to visit as many as possible.
Japan National Tourist Organization's self-guided "Kyoto Walks" pamphlet is available in a ready to print PDF format here[12]. The guide enables first time visitors to tour the city with ease and with minimum fuss by providing bus numbers, names of bus stops and clearly marked walking routes. There are a variety of self-guided walks in different districts to sample Kyoto's various sites. If you see the browser's dialog box popping up, just click on it till the entire PDF document opens.
World Heritage Sites
In 1994, 17 historic sites were inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List under the group designation Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto. Fourteen of the listed sites are in Kyoto itself, two are in the neighbouring city of Uji and one is in Ōtsu.
Listed by location, the fourteen World Heritage Sites in the city of Kyoto are:
Northern Kyoto: Kinkaku-ji, Ryōan-ji, Ninna-ji, Kōzan-ji, Shimogamo Shrine, Kamigamo Shrine
Central Kyoto: Nijō Castle, Nishi Hongan-ji, Tō-ji
Eastern Kyoto: Kiyomizu-dera, Ginkaku-ji
Western Kyoto: Tenryū-ji, Koke-dera
Southern Kyoto: Daigo-ji
Imperial Palaces and Villas
Stroll through the regal retreats of the Imperial Palace or one of the two Imperial villas with gardens and teahouses managed by the Imperial Household Agency. These are the Imperial Palace (京都御所 Kyōto-gosho) and Sentō Imperial Palace (仙洞御所 Sentō-gosho) in Central Kyoto, Katsura Imperial Villa (桂離宮 Katsura-rikyū) in Western Kyoto, and Shugakuin Imperial Villa (修学院離宮 Shugaku-in-rikyū) in Northern Kyoto. All four of these sites are open to the public by reservation through the Imperial Household Agency. The gardens located within the precints of each palace and villa are at their most scenic during spring cherry blossom season and autumn where a riot of colors enchant visitors. Each property is still used from time to time for official state functions or for private visits by the current royal family members.
The Imperial Household Agency maintains a quota on the number of visitors to each site per tour. Admission is free. English guides are available at the Imperial Palace; however, tours of the Sento Imperial Palace, Katsura Villa, and Shugakuin Villa are conducted in Japanese only (English pamphlets are given at each destination upon entry and books are available for purchase if you'd like to know more). Overseas visitors can apply online to the Imperial Household Agency in English here [13]. On its website are write ups and videos in English for interested visitors to gauge which ones they would like to visit before making an online application. Please note that advanced applications first become available on the first day of the month, three months in advance of the applicant's preferred touring month. For example, if your preferred date of visit falls in the month of April, you can begin applying on January 1. As these visits are over subscribed by the Japanese and overseas visitors, the Imperial Household Agency has to draw lots to pick the successful applicants. All applicants are notified on the status of their applications whether they are successful or otherwise within a week after closing date. Most applicants to the Imperial Palace are accepted, and early reservation is not usually necessary; however, those planning to visit the Sentō Imperial Palace, or either of the Imperial Villas should apply on the first available day of application as they are highly competitive and entire months of tours often become full within the first few days. Winter tours are typically much less competitive, but be aware that the gardens will not be as beautiful as other times of the year.

Centered on the Kamo Shrines, Shimogamo Shrine and Kamigamo Shrine, the fesitivites range from sedate purification rituals to high-paced horse races.
On May 3rd at Shimogamo Shrine, one of these prepatory events occurs within the green canapy of the Tadasu no Mori forest leading up to the shrine proper from 1pm. The Yabusame Shinji, or Mounted Archery Ritual, is conducted to pray for the safety of the procession and purify the parade route. Performed by archers of the Ogasawara school, a style that traces its history back about 850 years, riders thunder down a 500m lane firing arrows at three targets along the way. Each time an archer hit the target a cheer springs up from the assembled crowd, and the sound of thundering hoofbeats growing closer and closer let people know something exciting is about to happen. If you're in town for Golden Week or the Aoi Matsuri, be sure not to miss this dynamic ritual and display of martial prowess!

The Kamigamo and Shimogao Shrines （上鴨神社 下鴨神社）, known as the Kamo Shrines are designated as the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of ancient Kyoto. They are located in Kyoto City, Japan.
While Kamigamo Shrine (known as upper shrine), is located further north of the Shimogamo Shrine (known as the lower shrine), both shrines are located around northeast of Kyoto City.
Both Kamo shrines are founded by Kamo Clan of ancient Japan in the 8th century. Enshrined here are the god Kamotakatsunemino Mikoto and his daughter Tamayorihime-no Mikoto, who is said to have been impregnated by an arrow that floated down by the Kamo River, subsequently giving birth to Kamo-wakeikazuchi, the god who is enshrined at Kamigamo Shrine. Since the founding of Kyoto as the capital of Japan in 794, this shrine played an important role in protecting the Imperial Palaces and acting as an important venue for various royal ceremonial rites.
The precints around the Shrine include a forest called "Tadasuno Mori", a wooded area covering 120,000 square meters. The forest is an important botanical site and it's ecological status has not changed since ancient times. It also acts as an important place for the tourists to take a break and enjoy the autumn foliage and snow covered trees, in those seasons.
Both Kamigamo and Shimogamo Shrines, host the "AOI" (blue) festival, which is one of the three important festivals in Japan. During this festival the Heian era traditions are enacted in various fashions, including archery contests.
Hope you get a chance to visit and enjoy this shrine.
