Fushimi Inari Shrine, Kyoto
If you have ever seen the movie Memoirs of a Geisha then do you remember the scene where the kid is running through a tunnel of red orange gates? Well I made it one of my goals to go there and have my own personal video and pictures of passing through the torii gates. Each of these torii gates were donated by different Japanese businesses because Inari is viewed as the patron of business. If someone wanted to walk through all the gates then it is estimated to take about 2 hours. There are different courses available if you are pressed for time, but it was amazing to walk through them. The sun emitting from the spaces in between serve as a reminder of how many have prayed for their success in business. It is definitely one of the places I recommend to people to go to especially if they go to the Kyoto area.
