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.

March 15, 2024,Füchse und Schreintore in Kyoto 🦊⛩️🦊⛩️🇯🇵

And off to excursion number 2. The slow train to southern Kyoto and fortified with unagi - eel on rice. The program includes the Fushimi Inari-Taisha shrine complex. The crowds are already moving along the streets from the train station to the entrance to the complex and things are no better at the main shrine gate. The first few doors …

This morning got off to a good start. I woke up just before 5 and then straight to the train. I got off 2 stations further and then you are right in front of the temple. I didn't think it was such a big area with all the ⛩️. Above all, I always thought there was a way. But there …

Tour is part of the Japan & Hong Kong Collection 2025: komoot.com/de-de/collection/3749480/-japan-hongkong-2025
--------------------
One last of the more famous temples. Enough temple-hopping. Hit the ground again before 7 a.m.

Despite arriving at 7:05 a.m., the lower section was already quite crowded. Passing through the seemingly endless gates without anyone around usually means waiting patiently.

After a short lunch break, we drove to Mt. Inari and its shrines.
