Fushimi Inari Taisha is the head shrine of the Inari Taisha Shrines, of which there are said to be 30,000 across the country. It is also the No. 1 tourist spot that foreign visitors to Japan want to visit, and the "Senbon Torii" gates, a series of vermilion torii gates, are a must-see. You can enjoy a mysterious Japanese space that makes you feel as if you have wandered into another world.
The main hall is built on a cliff, which is the origin of the Japanese proverb "jump off the stage of Kiyomizu." It is supported by 139 pillars arranged vertically and horizontally without the use of nails, and the view of Kyoto city from the stage above is magnificent. Another attraction is the change in the surrounding scenery throughout the year.
*The tour is scheduled for approximately 120 minutes, including lunch and sightseeing time.
The temple is called Kinkakuji because the second and third floors of the Shariden Hall, which enshrines the bones of Buddha, are covered in gold leaf, but its correct name is Rokuonji, a Zen temple of the Rinzai sect of Buddhism. The view of the Kinkakuji reflected in the Kyokochi Pond is so beautiful that it has been designated as a World Heritage Site as one of the "Cultural Assets of Ancient Kyoto."
You will visit Arashiyama, home to many historic temples registered as World Heritage sites, including the Togetsukyo Bridge, the Bamboo Forest Path, and important cultural properties. In addition to the colorful natural scenery, there are also many photogenic spots, restaurants, and souvenir shops, allowing you to spend some time away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
