Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine, 68 Fukakusa Yabunouchicho, Fushimi, Kyoto 612-0882 Kyoto Prefecture

Visit a tree god and get your divination lot interpreted for you. Drink healing water from a hidden waterfall. Hike down a path that pilgrims still use. You will learn how politics changes the way people worship, how people struggle to strike a balance between ritual and spontaneity, and how Hinduism, Korean animism, and even the US military have shaped the Inari faith.

Duration: 3 hours

Pass By: Tofuku-ji Temple, 15-778 Hommachi, Higashiyama, Kyoto 605-0981 Kyoto Prefecture

We will pass by Tofukuji Temple, Kyoto's oldest zen temple, on the way to the station.
