Fushimi Inari Shrine

Highlight • Religious Site

Absolutely impressive. The area is huge and from the mountain you have a nice view of Kyoto. It is definitely worth the many steps through the Torii to climb.

Highlight (Segment) • Monument

Fushimi Inari Shrine, Kyoto 伏見稲荷大社
The Fushimi Inari Shrine (伏見稲荷大社, Fushimi Inari Taisha) is a significant Shinto shrine in southern Kyoto. It is famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates that wind up a network of trails behind the main buildings. The trails lead into the wooded slopes of the sacred Mount Inari, which is 233 meters high and part of the shrine grounds.
Fushimi Inari is the most important of several thousand shrines dedicated to Inari, the Shinto god of rice. Foxes are considered messengers of Inari, leading to many fox statues on the shrine grounds. The Fushimi Inari Shrine has ancient origins, predating the capital's move to Kyoto in 794.

Highlight • Religious Site

Good tip from Bri: also, you should get there very early. Then you'll have a chance to photograph many Toori without people around.

The deity Gondayu Okami is worshiped at this shinseki (the site of the former shrine where a deity remains). Behind it you have a breathtaking view of the city center of Kyoto and the area in the north.
