Muko Shrine, also known as Mukohi Shrine, was created in AD 718, although the main worship hall was rebuilt in AD 1418 and was considered as an important cultural property/ treasure. The Shrine attracts community worshippers for praying for the good harvest and other well beings.

Most visitors to the Shrine probably will be impressed for the Shrine's stone slate road from Main Gate to the Worship Hall [Entrance Path], when the stone slates were well paved. The Entrance Path is often used by the kindergarten students of Muko City's municipal nursery cares which often bring their students to the nearby park, Matsuyama Park, for short outings.

Muko Shrine attracts visitors for its cherry blossoms along the Entrance Path in late March to early April and its colorful maple leaves and other fall leaves in autumn. But even without flowering seasons, Muko Shrine is attractive for its wood-structure worship hall and other religious buildings.

On May 01 and around May 11, annually, Muko Shrine will conduct worship parade services around the community.

The Shrine is in short walking distance from Hankyu Kyoto Line's Nishimukohi Station. Walking from Hankyu Kyoto Line's station to Muko Shrine should follow the main road direction, and it is probably the easier route. although there are, sometimes, high trafficds on the main road.

Entrance is free and there is free toilet access for the visitors and worshippers.

Because the Shrine is located in Muko City, outside Kyoto, it is NOT known to many tourists, either domestic or foreign. Thus, it is NOT crowded.
