Visit the most dazzling sight in Kyoto - Fushimi Inari Taisha, the headquarters of more than 30,000 Inari shrines in Japan, dedicated to the Inari who blesses the harvest and business prosperity. At the entrance stands a large torii gate donated by Toyotomi Hideyoshi (also known as the Azuchi-Momoyama period or the Oda Nobunaga period from 1573 to 1603) in 1589. There are also stone statues of foxes, the messengers of Inari. Walking up the mountain, there are countless torii gates donated by companies and individuals along the way - buildings similar to wooden archways, representing the entrance from the human world to the divine realm. The orange-red "Senbon Torii" is said to have tens of thousands of gates, varying in height and age, closely arranged together, stretching endlessly, and quite shocking visually under the blue sky and bright sun. Fushimi Inari Taisha was built in 711, when Kyoto was not yet the capital of Japan. At four or five in the afternoon, the sun hides in the clouds, and the Senbon Torii is deep and endless.
