Kibune Shrine, located in Sakyo-ku, Kyoto, is famous as the head shrine of several thousand Kibune shrines throughout Japan.

The shrine was already built about 1,300 years ago and has long been famous as a "shrine for praying for love." It is also called "Koi no Miya" (Shrine of Love) because Izumishikibu, a famous poet, made a wish that came true when she was troubled about her love affair with her husband.

Kibune Shrine is crowded with many tourists during the daytime, but there is also a "Ushi-no-koku mairi" (pilgrimage to the shrine of the ox).
