Located in Kyoto, Japan, the Fushimi Inari Shrine was built to honor Inari, the shinto god of rice. The entrance of the shrine stands at the bottom of the mountain, and the vermillion red tori gates line the hike up to the summit. It took us a couple of hours to hike up to the top. According to the shrine's website here , there are over 10,000 gates all painted vermillion red to ward off evil forces. Hope you enjoy the timelapse of part of the hike up the mountain I made!
Love,

That's a really long walk! But I wouldn't mind taking portraits along the way.. I've got to get to Japan.
hehe it was pretty cool walking through all those gates!
Hey Jess, are you missing some words in that first sentence?
Looks so cool though. I've been to Kyoto but we never actually saw Fushimi Inari Shrine, there is so much to see there, it's nuts.
HAHAHAH yeah I posted on the go, just got back to fix my image --- I WAS LIKE what kind of english is this that I posted ???? ooo hope you get to go if you go back!
Hahahaha, that's hilarious! I should have know you'd have it all completely under control... but thought I'd mention it just in case.
It's easily been 10 years since I was in Japan, I bet it has changed so much, I'd love to go back.... maaaannnnn, there are so many places I want to go. I need to make Steem my full time gig so I can get amongst it!
Tourist, Japan is such a nice place and I'm sure you had a swell time @polebird
thank you! :) it was a fun trip!
Well you didn't skip leg day on that day.
hahah this made me laugh! :)
What an ENDURING Shrine - the God of Rice should be pleased..
I do wish I can visit #JAPAN someday -- the Pacific Rim is quite interesting, and I am always overjoyed when I see japanese antiques in any Antique store .
Hope You had your Wheaties B-4 starting out on this Long trek !
Looks like it'd be a fulfilling journey - bet u had fun (& Relief, once you made it up ). ☻

Take care
haha I think we didn't pack much snacks and had to get at least some water towards the top where they had a little shop :P
Shrine in Japan is beautiful and has many things to see and you are pretty. :)
Thank you so much! Japan is pretty fun to visit :)
Such vibrant photos. I am dying to go to japan. Thank you for the time lapse
This is more like climbing a mountain.
Japan and their shrine. I thought my country has a beautiful shrine until i saw this
hehe I actually didn't really research it, I was not expecting to hike up the mountain.. but since we were there.. why not :P
Nice walk into that temple, seems pretty long though :D I really like this traditional japanese architecture. Hope that I will make it to Japan somewhere in the not so distant future. Love this country and the crazy culture
thanks! Kyoto especially has so much of the traditional culture, loved my time there.
That gate is really unique to Japan. The place seems to be a very good place to take a walk or jog. Japan really has a lot of beautiful places worth for visit, most of my favorite video games came from Japan as well as anime series :) I really love Japan. :)
yeah japan was a pretty cool trip :), the bottom of the gates were pretty busy with tourists, but not as many people actually hiked up to the top! which anime series?
