Plum Blossom at Jonan-gu in Kyoto

Shinto shrine with a garden to inspire poetry

Local: Jonangu Shrine Data: Mid Feb - Late Mar 2025

Jonan-gu is a Heian Era Shinto shrine that was built in 794 when the court moved from Nara to Kyoto. It is famous for a Heian style poetry event called Kyokusui-no Utage, held twice a year in the beautiful garden in spring and autumn. A camellia and weeping plum festival takes place at the shrine in February and March. These photos were all taken in mid-March when the shrine is full of plum blossom. Maybe the gorgeous plum blossom will inspire you to write poetry!
