Service Description

This walk is an immersion into Shinto from the inside, through one of Japan’s most important sacred landscapes: Fushimi Inari Taisha. Dedicated to Inari Ōkami, a deity associated with prosperity, sustenance, and success, this shrine stands at the heart of a network of thousands of Inari shrines found across Japan. As we walk beneath the endless vermilion torii, belief becomes visible — repeated, layered, and deeply personal. Rather than rushing through the famous gates, we take time to understand why they exist: how Shinto sees the relationship between humans, nature, and the unseen; why foxes guard sacred spaces; and how everyday prayers for business, harvests, and well-being shaped this place over centuries. This is not just a visit to an iconic site — it is a walk through devotion, symbolism, and living faith, where Japan’s spiritual foundations quietly reveal themselves, step by step.
