Yakuso Jinshi is dedicated to medical deities, including Yakuso-jin and Hippocrates—an unusual mix of Japanese and Greek healing figures.

Yakuso Jinshi stands in Higashitamaya-cho, Kyoto, near Karasuma Oike.

This shrine uniquely enshrines a trinity of medical gods from three cultures: Japanese deities Ōkuninushi and Sukunabikona, Chinese god Shennong, and ancient Greek physician Hippocrates—making it possibly the only Shinto shrine honoring a Western figure.

The original shrine was destroyed in 1864 during the Hamaguri Gate Rebellion when flames engulfed Kyoto's medics' quarter in Nijo. It was rebuilt in 1906 and relocated to its current quiet residential location in Higashi-Tamaya.
