One of the oldest shrines in Kyoto [Kijima-za Amateru Mikoto Shrine], which is said to have been built around the 7th century, is popularly known as "Silkworm Shrine. It is said that at that time, the Hadas, who possessed sericultural skills, worshipped the god of sericulture in the area. The precincts of the shrine, covered with trees, are always quiet and a place of relaxation for local residents.

The three-pillared torii gate, one of the three most unusual torii gates in Kyoto, stands in the Moto-tadasu-no-ike pond within the precincts of the shrine. The unusual three-pillared torii gate, with its center representing the universe, was erected so that it can be seen from all sides.
Currently, this torii gate is covered by a fence, but it is fully visible from the outside. The surrounding area is filled with a mysterious atmosphere.
