About this Shrine

Inari Shrine, located in Nara period-style buildings, is a revered Shinto site in Hyogo Prefecture, dedicated to the worship of Inari Okami, the kami of rice and fertility. The shrine is famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates, which symbolize the connection between heaven and earth. Visitors can participate in the traditional 'sacred sake' ceremony, where they can receive a sacred sake cup from the shrine and pray for good fortune.

Cultural Significance

Inari is often depicted with multiple faces and hands, symbolizing his role as a kami of abundance. The shrine's annual 'Festival for the Blessing of Rice' honors Inari's role as the protector of agriculture and ensures a bountiful harvest.
