For the staff at Kyoto’s Fushimi Inari Shrine, the place’s torii peppered paths may well be nothing but a rather winding,
walk to work.
However, as a spot to work out,
walk the dog,
or simply have a wander,
it’s wonderful.
Tons of torii

Great shots here! I’m already a fan of your photography!
Lee says
Thanks Jesslee. It’s a great place to take pictures, and I was lucky enough to be there just as the priests were knocking off for the day and heading back down the hill.
Jonathan says
Lee those pictures are something else, very very nice!
Daniel Hamlow says
Oh, yes. It’s a wonderful place to go in Kyoto. Been there three times already. Best to get there by JR train as opposed to the Minami #5 bus from Kyoto Station, as that bus line is relatively infrequent.
Lee says
Yeah, that’s the mistake we made!

wow..looks sublime..i wonder if this is the place they filmed the beginning of ‘memoirs of a geisha’ when the young sayuri runs thru a place like this??
