One of the most riveting experiences of our Japan trip was a visit to the beautiful Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine. Thousands of bright vermilion-painted torii gates straddle both sides of the narrow mountain path leading up to Mount Inari to create a stunning visual at the Fushimi Inari Taisha.

The Sanjūsangendō Temple in Kyoto is a cherished national treasure of Japan. If you're looking for an unspoiled spiritual experience right in the city centre, then Sanjūsangendō is a temple you must visit. The relics that you see here are unparalleled in their beauty.
