Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine

Fushimi Inari Taisha is a Shinto shrine famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates that straddle a network of trails behind its main buildings. The trails lead into the wooded forest of the sacred Mount Inari, which stands at 233 meters and belongs to the shrine grounds. The shrine is dedicated to Inari, the Shinto god of rice, and foxes are thought to be Inari's messengers. Visitors can explore the mountain trails, which take about 2-3 hours to hike, and enjoy the scenic views of Kyoto. The shrine also has a main hall where visitors can pay respect to the resident deity and make a small offering. Along the way, there are smaller shrines, restaurants, and shops selling locally themed dishes and souvenirs
