Introduce Kyoto to Foreigners !!!
About 10,000 torii gates at Fushimi Inari Taisha continue to the summit of Mt. Inari.
Touring all the routes to the summit is called “mountain tour”.
If you go around the mountain slowly, it will take about 3 hours.
When you climb near the summit, you can see the wonderful cityscape of Kyoto.
Mountain tour is also popular with foreigners, and on weekdays there are more foreign tourists than Japanese.
After passing through the Senbon Torii gate, you will find “Omokaru Stone”.
Two lanterns are lined up, and “Omokaru Stones” are placed on top of the lanterns.
After thinking about your wishes in front of the lantern, lift the stone.
When you lift a stone, if you feel that the stone is lighter than you imagined, your wish will come true, and if you feel that the stone is heavier than you imagined, your wish will not come true.
Fushimi Inari Taisha is famous for its Senbon torii.
Since the Edo period, the torii gate has been built by the dedication of worshipers because it was said that the wish would come true if the torii gate was dedicated.
Large vermilion torii gates are lined up all over the precincts, and there are about 10,000 torii gates in Mt. Inari.
Depending on the size of the torii, the price ranges from 200,000 yen to over 1 million yen, and even ordinary people can dedicate the torii.

“Oinari-san,” the deity of Fushimi Inari Taisha, is the god of grain and agriculture that symbolizes rice (Inari god).
Inari God was originally a god who controlled a good harvest, but now it is also worshiped as a god of business prosperity, industrial prosperity, family safety, traffic safety, and improvement of performing arts.
The foxes you see a lot in the precincts are not the Inari gods, but the messenger of the Inari God.
It is said that Fushimi Inari Taisha began when the Inari deity was enshrined on Mt. Inari in the Nara period (711).
The Fushimi Inari Taisha was completely destroyed by the Onin War that lasted for 11 years from 1467 to 1478.
Thirty years later, the current main shrine was rebuilt in 1499.
Today, many shrines in the precincts are designated as important cultural properties.
Fushimi Inari Taisha is a shrine located in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture. It is the head shrine of Inari Shrine, which is said to have about 30,000 nationwide.
