Most of the famous spots for autumn leaves in Kyoto are temples. In addition to planting maple groves at Kamigamo Shrine, there are also hand-made market stalls on the fourth Sunday of each month. The large turf outside the shrine and the shade of the trees under the maple forest become Japan. A good place for family picnics and children to have fun, so the autumn season is very suitable for walking and strolling together. Wendy and I brought a lot of hand-made wooden groceries back to Taiwan, exquisite and practical, and we will develop high-quality trophies along this route in the future. .
How to get there: How to get to Kamigamo Shrine?
Located in the North District of Kyoto, if you are driving by car, it is about 30 minutes from Kyoto Station. If you are used to taking a bus to various attractions, you can take bus No. 4 in front of Kyoto Station and get off at Kamigamo Shrine Station, or take bus No. 9 at Kamigamo Imperial Garden Get off at Bridge Station. Both bus stops are within walking distance to the shrine.Although you can walk to the shrine just like getting off at Kitayama Station on the Karasuma Subway Line, it takes about 15 minutes, so it is more convenient for readers.
A brief introduction to Kamigamo Shrine and experience in peripheral travel.
The Kamo River, which flows slowly through the center of Kyoto, is located in the upper reaches of Kamokamo Shrine. It is officially called "Kamobetsu Rai Shrine" and another Shimogamo Shrine (Kamo Yuzu Shrine) is combined into Kamo Shrine.After inquiring, the shrine was founded a long time ago but there is no exact time. However, after the capital moved to Kyoto in the Heian period, it became an important shrine for Japan to protect the country.In addition, one of the three major festivals, Aoi Matsuri (Kamo Matsuri), is held on May 5th each year. It is jointly held by the Kamigamo and Shimogamo Shrines. The parade dressed in Heian period costumes departs from the Kyoto Imperial Palace and passes through Shimogamo Shrine. , And finally arrived at Kamigamo Shrine to complete the mission of praying for a good harvest in farming and offering worship to God Kamo
Passing through the torii gate of Noda Shrine, the trail is covered with white gravel, and there are large areas of turf on both sides. Several families have fun with their children here, and on the 2th-five-third day, parents bring their children in costumes. Here are blessings, worship and commemorative photos taken.I secretly noticed that there are two Tachisha decorations in the front of the temple. It is understood that it is to imitate the Kamomoto mountain behind the main hall. However, we wanted to go to the outer hand-made market soon, so we did not go deep to visit the main hall and the right hall has become National treasure of the world heritage.
Maybe wait for the next spring cherry blossom time to visit again.

Hand-made market at Kamigamo Shrine.
Wendy once compiled a guide to the Kyoto Handicrafts, Antiques, and Pottery Markets. It mentioned that "the large-scale handcrafted market in Kyoto area is usually held every month. The chances of encountering it during the tour are very high, and Hand-made markets are mostly in parks, shrines and other shade-covered places. They are arranged as an itinerary to get close to nature and outings in the suburbs. You can go to the market and outing, which can be regarded as a quite leisurely itinerary. The organizers of the market are " "Hand-Kari City Affairs Bureau", "Kraft Co., Ltd." and "Crossroad Crossroad Practice Committee", "Kraft" Co., Ltd. regularly organizes three hand-made markets in Kitayama, Okazaki Park, and Kamigamo Shrine. ", through the intelligence website to update the latest market activities and time and other information.
2016 Kamigamo Shrine hand-made market opening time for the autumn leaves season.
When sorting out the photos, I missed some photos of the stalls of cakes, biscuits, and snacks. I thought it was just an established stall. I didn’t expect that...The hand-made market at Uigamo Shrine every Spring and Autumn Festival, the special project "わたしのおやつ発表会" is invited. Let the stall owners with small food stalls participate in the grand event. Originally, applications for the market to sell cooked food and desserts had to go through procedures such as review and professional equipment review, but through this special project, amateurs can participate. The 2016 autumn maple season market will open from 11/27 (Sun) from 9 am to 4 pm, which is also the 15th わたしのおやつ発show party, and you will enjoy the super good craftsmanship of the ladies!

Conclusion
This time I visited the hand-made market at Kamo Shrine. This is different from the commercial roadside stalls in Taiwan and Thailand. How do you say?Of course, the shop owners have the need to exhibit merchandise, but...it’s a little more relaxed and friendly atmosphere. The booths have their carefully crafted products, and they are surprised by their skillful craftsmanship while watching them talk to each other. , Chat with guests, as if this market is a place to meet old friends once a month.The happiness infected me and Wendy. Every time we shopped and bought the goods, we couldn't help but chat with the bosses. Not only was the fun of shopping but also the experience of life.
