One of my first nights in Kyoto I decided to walk around Fushimi Inari, based on the advice of a fellow couchsurfer in Busan (thanks Liam) The trail of thousands of Torii is radically different at night vs the day view. Walking alone at night I felt a very spiritual presence as I walked through and around the many glowing orange Torii.
The entrance to the Shrine
and so the path begins...
do you take the blue pill, or the red?
I went left
and the trail keeps going
Big gates, little gates, Torii of all sizes and colors
I tried to capture the night sky with the glowing Torii but I don't think it came out so well
A fox, as they are said to represent the messengers of Inari (god of rice and sake.. my kind of god)
hey, i know that guy!
