One of Kyoto's oldest (founded in 711 AD) and most revered Shinto shrines,



               Fushimi Inari serves as the headquarters for all the 40,000 shrines dedicated to




               Inari across Japan.  Inari, the kami that Fushimi Inari-Taisha is dedicated to, is



               a popular figure in Shinto practice and is the Japanese deity of foxes, rice,




               fertility, agriculture, industry, and general prosperity. Take a hike through the



               visually stunning, thousands and thousands of vermilion Torii gates, spread




               across  a  thickly  wooded  mountain  and  take  back  an  experience  worth




               remembering. It’s especially enchanting when done at dusk or dawn, away



               from the usual crowd that throngs Inari. Just don’t get spooked out by the




               Shinto graveyards on the way. No Entry Fee. Open 24*7.
