Option 1: Meet your guide at the main entrance of Fushimi Inari Taisha and begin your adventure at one of Japan's most iconic landmarks.

Fushimi Inari Taisha, one of Japan's most iconic Shinto shrines. Walk through the famous Senbon Torii, a breathtaking pathway of thousands of vivid vermilion torii gates stretching into the mountainside. As you explore, enjoy the unique atmosphere created by the endless rows of gates and the peaceful forest surroundings.

You will also have the opportunity to try the famous Omokaru Ishi, or “Heavy-Light Stones.” Make a wish and lift one of the sacred stones. According to local tradition, if the stone feels lighter than you expected, your wish may come true more easily; if it feels heavier, achieving your wish may require more effort.
