#KyotoAttractions #100TravelWays
⛩️Fushimi Inari Taisha, located in Kyoto, is one of the most famous shrines in Japan, famous for its magnificent landscape composed of thousands of bright red torii gates. As you enter the shrine, you will be greeted by the majestic Thousand Torii Gate Tunnel. Rows of torii gates wind their way up to the top of the mountain, seemingly stretching endlessly, leading visitors on a mysterious spiritual journey.
Walking in this tunnel, the red torii gates are particularly bright against the sunlight, and the sound of footsteps echoing in the quiet mountains is awe-inspiring. The name of the donor is engraved on each torii gate. These torii gates symbolize faith and blessings. Tourists will also stop along the way to pray for peace and success.
Along the way, you can also see many small shrines and shrines dedicated to the fox statue, the messenger of Inari. These unique designs add more mystery to the shrine.

🎫 Ticket information: Fushimi Inari Taisha is open all day, no tickets are required, and it is a great place to explore freely.
📷 Don’t forget to take photos of the magnificent Torii, especially at dusk, when the sun shines through the red Torii and casts dreamy shadows. This is the most intoxicating moment of Fushimi Inari. This spiritual journey perfectly combines Kyoto's ancient culture and natural beauty.
