Description Fushimi Inari-taisha
伏見稲荷大社

[link]

This Shrine was probably the most interesting one in all of Kyoto. It worships the Fox god. Apparently many young buisnessmen would come and pray in this Shinto Shrine. When they become successful they will donate money to build a torii gate. There are thousands of them all through the mountain.

Before I die, I want to visit this shrine at least once... I have so much I need to tell Inari.

Should go early So you can have time to build your own Torii

*Laughs* I think you're over-estimating me. I don't think I'll ever be able to afford a Torii. XD

I would love to visit this shrine along with all the other Inari shrines across Japan.

You could spend quite a bit of time in Japan if you do so.
