Kyoto Legendary Shrine

#summervacay Fushimi Inari Taisha is Kyoto’s legendary shrine known for thousands of vermilion torii gates winding up Mount Inari (233 m)—a spiritual site dedicated to Inari Ōkami, the kami of rice, prosperity, and business . Best time to vist is during the early morning (before ~7 AM): Quieter, gentle light, ideal for photos . Late afternoon / night: After 6 PM or post-sunset brings a peaceful, mystical ambiance . Do avoid the Midday (10 AM–2 PM): Heavily crowded, particularly around the entrance and lower trail . Peak seasons (cherry blossom, New Year, holidays): Expect significantly higher crowds . Do wear comfy shoes & bring cash: Trails are uneven; small food stalls and offerings accept yen only #kyoto #shrine #fushimiinari #citydaytours
