Dedicated to Inari, the Shinto deity of rice and business prosperity, Fushimi Inari Shrine is world-renowned for its endless corridors of bright vermilion torii gates donated by worshippers. The scenic hiking trails stretch over two miles through the forested mountain, flanked by mossy stone shrines and iconic fox statues clutching keys to the granaries. Along the ascent, travelers can rest at historic teahouses nestled under the canopy or take in sweeping views over the city. At the base, traditional eateries serve local delicacies like Kyoto-style inari sushi wrapped in sweet fried tofu.
