Fushimi Inari Taisha

伏見稲荷大社

F

PRESERVE Selected

The head shrine of all Inari shrines and Japan's most hypnotic walk — tunnels of vermilion torii winding up Mount Inari. Go at dawn: the crowds arrive with the tour buses, and the upper loop is near-empty year-round.

Most visitors turn back at the Yotsutsuji overlook; the quiet full summit loop beyond it is the actual pilgrimage.
