About this Shrine

The Inari Shrine in Tottori is one of Japan's most famous Shinto shrines, dedicated to the god of rice and fertility. Located on the shores of Tottori Bay, the shrine is known for its thousands of vermilion torii gates that form a tunnel leading up the mountain, symbolizing the connection between heaven and earth. The shrine complex also features several festivals throughout the year, including the Inari Taikomochi Festival in November, which celebrates the arrival of autumn rice harvests.

Cultural Significance

The shrine is famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates, a tradition believed to have originated with the Japanese word 'inari' meaning 'rice', and is also connected to the mythology of fox spirits (Kitsune), which are often depicted as messengers of the god Inari.
