Kawai Shrine

A lot of dedicated mirror ema. Even the makeup has its own personality, and I can't help but stare at it

Kawai Shrine in Shimogamo has long been worshiped as the god of beauty.

Kawai Shrine, one of the subsidiary shrines of Shimogamo Shrine, enshrines Tamayorihime no Mikoto, the mother of Emperor Jimmu. It is revered as a god of beauty because of its appearance, which is said to be as beautiful as a ball.
This ema is a mirror ema that imitates an ancient Japanese patterned mirror, and you can apply makeup to the ema's face while making a wish using the cosmetics you have on hand or the colored pencils you can borrow. After dedicating the votive tablet, enjoy Karin Bijin Water (430 yen) made from Chinese quince harvested in the grounds of Shimogamo Shrine. If you enjoy Karin, which is said to make your skin beautiful, you should be able to get closer to your ideal beauty.
