[Atago Shrine] ⛩️ Mount Atago, Kyoto

🏖️Overview: Atagoyama is a 924m high mountain located in Ukyo Ward, Kyoto City, and has been an object of worship🙏 since ancient times. At the summit is Atago Shrine, which has long been known as the god of fire prevention and fire suppression🧯. In addition to the main approach, there are several other hiking trails, and tens of thousands of worshippers visit every year. 💞Reasons why we recommend it: This time, we started the climb from JR Hozugyō Station🚞. We proceeded through a forested area🌲 with a steep climb. The hiking trail was well maintained, and when it joined the main approach halfway, the path became wider and it became very easy to walk😃. We climbed up to Atago Shrine, and there were several places where we could see beautiful views through the trees. 📍Location: 🏣616-8485 Located on the summit of Mt.
