Hirano Shrine

Hirano Shrine (, Hirano-jinja) is a Shinto shrine located in Kyoto. It is an ancient shrine listed in the Engishiki Jinmyocho as a Myojin Taisha and one of the Twenty-Two Shrines (specifically the Upper Seven Shrines). Formerly ranked as a Kanpei Taisha under the Modern system of ranked Shinto shrines, it is now a Beppyo shrine of the Association of Shinto Shrines. Its shrine crest is the "double cherry blossom" (, Yaezakura). The current main shrine consists of four halls in two buildings, constructed in the unique style called Hirano-zukuri , and is designated as an Important Cultural Property. Other structures, including the worship hall, inner gate, south gate, and the Tsunashige Shrine, are designated or registered Cultural Property by Kyoto Prefecture. The shrine grounds are famous for cherry blossoms, particularly the illuminated night blossoms.
