元旦になると京都では各地の神社仏閣が参拝者で賑わいます。
京都小川生薬が位置する二条でも、実はとある神社に行列ができています。

金属や鉱物の守り神が祀られる、「御金神社」。
住宅街のなかにポツンとあり、広さもコンパクトですが、1年を通して参拝者の絶えない神社です。

なんといっても金色の鳥居が目を引き、思わず写真を撮りたくなるような豪華さです。
金運アップをお祈りされる方も多いそうですよ。

京都小川生薬からは徒歩3分。ぜひご参拝してみてください。

On New Year’s Day, shrines and temples throughout Kyoto are filled with worshippers.
Even in the Nijo area, where Kyoto Ogawa Herbal Medicine is located, there is one particular shrine that attracts long lines of visitors — Mikane Shrine.

Dedicated to deities associated with metals and minerals, this small shrine is tucked away in a quiet residential neighborhood. Although compact in size, it welcomes a steady stream of visitors throughout the year.
Its most eye-catching feature is undoubtedly the brilliant golden torii gate. Its striking appearance is so impressive that you may find yourself reaching for your camera.

Many visitors also come here to pray for good fortune and financial prosperity.
Mikane Shrine is just a 3-minute walk from Kyoto Ogawa Herbal Medicine. We highly recommend stopping by during your visit.
