Ando Goryu Shrine is a Shinto shrine in Kyoto Prefecture dedicated to the kami of the Ando clan, a prominent family of samurai during the Edo period. The shrine's current structure dates back to the Meiji period, but it is believed to be built on an even older site that was originally used as a burial ground for members of the Ando clan. Visitors can see the shrine's main hall, which features a beautifully crafted wooden roof and a striking torii gate.
