A Journey of the Heart Surrounded by Vermilion Torii Gates

When I visited Fushimi Inari Taisha, I was first struck by its overwhelming beauty. The sight of thousands of vermilion torii gates lining the mountain path made me feel as if I had stepped into another dimension. As I passed under the gates, my mind gradually calmed, and I felt enveloped by the sacred atmosphere. Climbing the mountain, I enjoyed the small shrines and beautiful scenery scattered along the way, discovering various things as I walked. Praying in a quiet place and bringing my hands together in a wish, I felt a deep sense of satisfaction and the powerful presence of this ancient site. It was a precious experience where I could feel both history and inner peace in a place harmonized with the surrounding nature.
