The sight of rows upon rows of vermilion torii gates is simply breathtaking! The items held in the mouths of the foxes at Fushimi Inari-taisha are mainly four kinds: rice ears, a scroll, a jewel (hoshu), and a key. These are said to be carried by the foxes (white foxes), messengers of Inari Ōkami, and each has a different meaning.

Fushimi Inari Taisha 68 Fukakusa Yabunouchi-cho, Fushimi-ku, Kyoto-shi, Kyoto Fushimi Inari Taisha, which attracts attention from overseas pilgrims, is also called "Inari-san". It is the main shrine of Inari Shrine, which is said to have about 30,000 shrines nationwide, and is popular with people all over the country, regardless of age or gender. The beautiful "Senbon Torii (shrine gate)" with its bright vermilion color creates a fantastic and graceful scene. The messenger of the gods at Inari Shrine is a fox. At the Keihama Fushimi Inari Shrine, which I visit Prayer this time, such a stone statue of a fox welcomes Worshippers. There are 108 of them!!

If you go through the Senbon torii gate of Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, you will find the Okusha Fushimi Inari Taisha Okusha Shrine Worship Hall. From there, you will start to proceed to Mt. Inari, past the pine trees that have risen roots, and if you continue for a while, you will find the Kumataka Shrine in front of the middle of Mt. Inari. I bought a candle at the bamboo shop just across the street and made a request to Kumataka Shrine. If you clap twice in front of the new pond in front of the company, the sound will echo from the pond. By the speed at which you can hear the sound, you can tell when your wish will come true. By the way, it seems that if you go in the direction where the sound came, your wish will come true. Kumataka Okami is said to be the god of competition, and it seems that there is a benefit to win the game, so why not come here when you have an important game?
