Very fun and informative trip with our guide Natsuki- she was super knowledgeable and helpful. We really enjoyed all three locations, and Natsuki was able to provide lots of interesting context for the temples and pathways. She also suggested a second tour to us which we took and really enjoyed. Strongly recommend this tour! guide: Natsuki is the best!

I had such a fun day on the Kyoto and Nara tour today! It rained a little, but it didn’t stop me from enjoying all the places we visited. I especially had a great time in Nara — just be careful with the deer! Our guide, Shine, was really kind, helpful, and well-organized. He always kept us updated about where and when to meet, which made the whole tour easy and enjoyable. I really enjoyed the tour and would definitely recommend it!

I had so much fun, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish! Since it’s a self-guided tour, there was plenty of room for exploring on our own while still having the flexibility to enjoy the trip at our own pace. Our guide, HaoWen, was also very thoughtful and gave us souvenirs at the end of the trip. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Our tour guide, who could switch between Chinese, Japanese, and English, and also spoke Korean, made sure every group member was taken care of. It was a huge benefit not having to research the history and stories of each attraction ourselves. They offered pre-ordered lunch, which allowed us more time to explore Kiyomizu-dera Temple and its surroundings, and the food was quite good. The itinerary was well-paced for the limited time (however, this tour is not suitable for travelers who prefer to savor sights slowly or spend a lot of time taking photos, as the time allotted for Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine doesn't allow for walking the entire Senbon Torii path!). The tour bus was clean and tidy, and the ride was smooth and steady. I'm prone to motion sickness and usually sleep on buses, and I didn't wake up due to poor driving.

Our Kyoto experience were so amazing and fun. Thank you to Zoey for doing a fantastic tour for everyone. It’s been great and educational experience for us. Thank you also to our wonderful bus driver. Both these guys were amazing and friendly. We really appreciate them. This was really one of the highlights of our trip here in Japan. Congratulations Zoey! Good job!👏👍🇦🇺🇯🇵

What to know about Fushimi Inari Taisha

Welcome to Fushimi Inari Taisha, one of the most popular shrines in Kyoto and a must-visit destination for travelers exploring Japan. Located in Fushimi-ku, Kyoto, this historic site is dedicated to Inari Okami, the Shinto deity of rice, agriculture, and business prosperity. The shrine is world-famous for its thousand torii gates (Senbon Torii), which create winding pathways up Mount Inari. From ancient times, worshippers have come here to pray for good fortune and prosperity, making it one of the most visited shrines throughout Japan.

Fushimi Inari Taisha: Must-Visit Attractions

The Giant Torii Gate and Main Shrine

Upon arrival, visitors are greeted by the giant torii gate that marks the entrance. Passing through the Romon Gate, you'll reach the main hall, where visitors pay respects and make offerings to Inari.

The Thousand Torii Gates (Senbon Torii)

The highlight of any visit is walking through the thousand torii gates, each donated by individuals and businesses. Prices for sponsorship range from hundreds of thousands of yen to over a million, depending on gate size.

Yotsutsuji Intersection and Scenic Views

About 30-45 minutes into the climb, you'll reach the Yotsutsuji intersection, offering sweeping views of Kyoto. From here, you can continue to the summit or turn back. The full trail covers around 3.5 km and takes 2--3 hours to complete.

Shin-Ike Pond and Omokaru Ishi

On the trail, you'll come across Shin-Ike Pond and the famous Omokaru Ishi, or "heavy-light stone." Tradition says that if you lift the stone and it feels lighter than expected, your wish will come true, bringing good fortune.

Fox Statues and Inari Cuisine

Scattered across the shrine are fox statues, often holding symbolic items such as keys or scrolls. Along the pathways, stalls sell the signature dish of inari sushi (rice wrapped in aburaage) and kitsune udon, a noodle soup topped with sweet tofu.

Fushimi Inari Shrine History

Founded in 711, Fushimi Inari Shrine predates the establishment of Kyoto as Japan's capital. It held strong ties to the imperial court and later the imperial palace, and today, its main shrine (honden) is designated a national treasure.

Dedicated to Inari Okami, the shrine is also guarded by distinctive fox statues, believed to be messengers of the deity. Pilgrims and visitors leave offerings at both the main gate (Romon Gate) and numerous small shrines found across the whole mountain.

How to Access Fushimi Inari Taisha

  • From Kyoto Station: Take the JR Nara Line to Inari Station. The shrine entrance is directly opposite the station.

  • From Gion Shijo Station: Take the Keihan Line to Fushimi Inari Station (about 7 minutes on foot to the main gate).

Fushimi Inari Taisha: Practical Information For Travellers

  • Entrance Fee: Free admission (no entrance fee required).

  • Opening Hours: Open 24 hours a day, all year round.

  • Best Time to Visit: Early morning or evening for fewer crowds and a peaceful atmosphere.
