Summertime in the Shin'en

Notice

Heian Shrine is undergoing a series of renovations expected to last until March 2031. The shrine and garden will remain accesisble throughout, but some buildings may be covered up.

Latest on Heian Shrine

Heian Jingu, Kyoto's strikingly vermilion-hued shrine, is well-known for its springtime displays of sakura (cherry blossoms). But a visit to the Shin'en garden here is worthwhile anytime of year. These summer scenes offer glimpses of ponds graced with lotus flowers, leafy green branches and a hint of the red-tinged maples to come.
