Shimogamo-jinja and Tadasu no Mori 下鴨神社（賀茂御祖神社）・糺の森

It opens at 6:30, free of charge, and before the shrine there is a whole forest to walk through.

One of the two Kamo shrines, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It stands at the far end of Tadasu no Mori, the broadleaf forest left in the middle of the city. On 15 May the *Aoi matsuri* arrives here, the procession in ancient court dress that sets out from the Imperial Palace; in the days before, horseback archery (3 May), the purification of the priestess (4 May), ritual archery (5 May) and the Mikage matsuri (12 May) are held.
