The southern district is mainly an industrial area, especially for sake breweries. However, there are several worthy attractions to visit. For example, there is the Tofuku-ji Temple, which was founded in 1236 by priest Enni. The temple is regarded as one of the five main Zen temples in Kyoto and its large Sanmon Gate is the oldest Zen main gate in Japan. There is also the Fushimi-Inari Taisha Shrine, which was dedicated to the gods of rice and sake by the Hata family in the 8th Century. The shrine is one of Japan's most popular and is the chief shrine for over 30,000 Inari shrines within Japan. The Tofuku-ji Temple and Fushimi-Inari Taisha Shrine are the most popular attractions in the southern district of Kyoto.
