Why is it called Ni-neizaka?
1. It is said that this name was given when the slope was built in the 2nd year of Datong (807 AD).
2. The theory that it came to be called Niningzaka because it is under Sanneizaka.
So why Sanneizaka?
It is a famous story that Toyotomi Hideyoshi's right wife (northern political office) "Nene" lived in Kodaiji. It is said that the name came from the fact that "Nene" went up the slope to visit Kiyomizu-dera Temple in memory of the birth of a child.
If you fall on Niningzaka, you will die within two years?!
This slope has been around for a long time, but this name became the street name because it means the slope in front of Sanen-zaka.
The legend that "if you stumble and fall here, you will die within two years" seems to have been handed down as a warning phrase "Be careful on the stone steps."
According to a certain diary, "In the eighth year of the Horeki era (1758), a person named Masuya Kihei, with the permission of the government, made it a pioneer house." Since then, this area has been called Masuyacho. It is the current house in the early Taisho period and is designated as a national townscape preservation area.

The oldest record of the reign of Inari Ōkami is the "Yamashiro Kokufudoki Itsubun Inarishajo". This does not yet have a dating date of 4 years (711). However, in the era of the "Duke of Qin", when he was "Sekiji Rice Liang Ichi Yu 2 Yu 2 Tomi Ichi" and "Yore Mochi Ye Re" from the place where he was "Sekiji Rice Liang Ichi Yu 2 Tomi Yuichi", it turned into a "swan" and flew to the mountain peak, and "Raw Reko" or rice was born, so it was "finally made Resha" by Chery, and "其苗裔悔二先過一而抜二社之木一生生Re Family 祷 Re 命也" and "為レ社" According to the "Inarisha Shinto Family Onishi (Qin) Clan Genealogy", it is written that "Prince of Qin, Lord of Kamo Prefecture 24th of Kamo Prefecture, Kujira no Sueko Wado 4th Year February Jinno, Inari Myojin Shrine Shrine Notoki Yoshi Tonaru, Tenpei Jingo First Year August 8th Graduation", and as mentioned earlier, he is called a descendant of the Lord of Kamo Prefecture.
The age of Wado 4 years appears here, but as a reason why it was settled in this year, the season was irregular throughout the country at this time and the five grains were not good, so when a royal envoy was sent to Meiyama Okawa to pray, God taught him, and when the great god was enshrined on Inariyama in the mountain back country, the five grains were greatly fertile and the country became rich and prosperous, and this ritual was the first day of February of the 4th year of Wado. There is a tradition with. This cannot be said to be true at all, but it is presumed that this date was not suddenly handed down, but that there was some reason between the clans that should be specified, but it is not known at the moment what kind of event it was. However, if I had to say, it would be fair to think that this was the time when the chieftain of the clan, that is, the person who specialized in the rituals of the great gods (this is the one written as "Inari Myojin Gozano Toki Yoshi Tonaru" in the genealogy seen earlier) was established.

Otowayama Kiyomizu-dera Temple was founded in 778. It dates back to about 1200 years ago. As a sacred place of Kannon, which symbolizes great mercy, it has been open to the common people since ancient times and loved by a wide range of people. Old history books and literature depict many people enjoying visiting Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
The 130,000-square-meter precincts stretch halfway up Mount Otowa in the east of Kyoto are lined with more than 30 temples and monuments, including national treasures and important cultural properties. Since its founding, the tower has been destroyed each time by a major fire exceeding 10 degrees Celsius, but it has been rebuilt many times due to devout faith. Most of the current cathedral was rebuilt in 1633. In 1994, it was registered as one of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage "Cultural Assets of Ancient Kyoto".
