Fushimi Inari Shrine locates on Mount Inari in the city of Kyoto. Fushimi Inari is said to be the temple of grains, agriculture and industry. The temple is well known worldwide for the thousands of vermillion torii gates. The main hall locates at the foot of the mountain, and the torii gates continue upwards to the top of the mountain. To the top of the mountain is about a 2-hour hike. Some of the roads are rockier and harder to climb, so make sure to wear comfortable shoes when hiking up the mountain.
