Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto: All 10,000 Gates Explored ★ ONLY in JAPAN #24 夜の京都伏見稲荷神社
Adventure in Kyoto! Loads of culture and history in one city.
We've got all that and more in this episode of ONLY in JAPAN.
Kyoto's Shrine of 10,000 'Torii' or Gates is simply awesome. It's also ranked as Japan's no.1 attraction for foreign tourists*
Yes, it can be crowded during the day, but we'll explore this mysterous shrine at night when no one is around -- except the wildlife and a few stragglers.
This time, John will explore and explain Kyoto's most popular shrine, Fushimi Inari.
HISTORY:
Fushimi Inari is full of history going back to the year 717!
John interviews one of the Shinto priests and unravel some of the history that might not be in guidebooks. The lengend of Fushimi Inari is revealed!
Are those gates orange or red?
What's the meaning behind the color?
Which big Hollywood movie was this shrine featured in?
Who cleans all these gates?
John wants to know.
WHEN TO VISIT:
It may seem impossible to escape the crowds here, but you can!
The hours are officially listed as 10:00 to 16:00 but the shrine is open to all free of charge 24 hours a day.
Best of all it's FREE! Why? The gates!! They're all bought by people and businesses to bring them luck.
The best time to see it is at night. It's when most locals go with thewir friends, high school couples can be seen climbing up together. Night time adventurers will also see a lot of cats! That rustling you hear on the woods outside the orange gates may not always be a cat though ....
KYOTO BY BICYCLE:
How do you get to Fushimi Inari from Kyoto Station?
I could draw you a map, but it's much better to show you by bicycle!
Rent a cycle for the day and see more of Kyoto. Cheap and easy.
KCTP (Kyoto Cycling Tour Project) has a good variety of city bicycles for the surrounding hills or the city. You can reserve online or call and have the bike waiting for you as soon as you arrive.
The city is not always cycle friendly so keep to the left side, use the light after dark and try to avoid pedestrian sidewalks.
HOW TO GET THERE:
Here's the Google Map
Take the JR Nara line from Kyoto Station for 3 stops or rent a bicycle :) Taxi takes about 10-15 minutes.
*Ranked no.1 by Trip Advisor 2014 rankings on Japanese Atttractions

The ancient tree at Shonen temple in Kyoto
称念寺（猫寺）京都 / Shonen-ji Temple(Cat Temple) Kyoto /교토
本空山（ほんくうざん）と号し、浄土宗知恩院派に属する。慶長１１年（１６０６）茨城県土浦（つちうら）城主松平伊豆守信吉（いずのかみのぶよし）が師僧嶽誉（がくよ）上人のために建立した寺で、上人は同宗捨世（しゃせい）派の祖・称念上人を開山とし寺号を称念寺と定め、自らを中興開基（ちゅうこうかいき）とした。
当時に葬られた松平信吉の母が徳川家康の異父妹であったので寺紋を徳川家定紋、三ッ葉葵とした。
寺伝によれば、三代目住職の頃、松平家と疎遠となり寺は荒廃していたが、ある夜、帰宅した住職は、愛猫が美姫に化身して舞うのを見て怒り、これを追放した。数日後、猫が住職の夢枕に立ち松平家との復縁を告げ、住職に報恩し、寺は立派に再興した。
以後、寺では猫の霊を厚く守護し、本堂前の老松は猫を偲んで植えたものである。
このことから称念寺はいつしか「猫寺」と呼ばれるようになったという。なお、本尊お内仏来迎仏阿弥陀（ないぶつらいこうぶつあみだ）像は平安中期の高僧恵心僧都（えしんそうず）の作といわれる。

Philosoper's Path and Honen-in temple and gardens, Kyoto, Japan travel video
We're taking a stroll on the Philosophers Path in Kyoto, Japan and continuing to Honen-in temple and gardens. It's just about 1 mile long and very pleasant. You go along this canal and there are gardens, there are private homes, there's a beautiful hillside and more of these lingering fall colors. There are little benches scattered here and there where you could sit down if you wish. But really it just takes about a half an hour to have a leisurely stroll along the Philosophers Path. And it's a very good way to start the day because obviously this is open from sunrise, if you want to come out here early in the day.
Honen-in temple and garden is a good spot to visit early in the morning because it opens at 7 am and it’s free, so you don't have to worry about the gates being closed when you arrive here at Honen, with images of the Buddha.

Out with Evil, In with Fortune – Setsubun is February 3 in Japan
Setsubun, or the “bean-throwing festival” is Friday, February 3, the day preceding “risshun” which is the first day of spring according to the old lunar Japanese calendar. On the day of Setsubun, the celebrations include the custom of throwing roasted soybeans while chanting “Out with evil! (oniwasoto) In with Fortune! (Fukuwauchi) .”
According to tradition, ogres are scared off by the incoming beans and good fortune will then come into the home. Events with entertainers and athletes are held at shrines all over the country and if you eat the same number of beans as your age, you will be in good health all year.
Here is how the Japanese enjoy Setsubun in traditional and non-traditional ways:

Our travel vlog from when we visited Osaka, Kyoto and Tokyo all thanks to Wagamama's and their 'make a wish' competition.
Check out our travels as we visited Osaka Castle, tried out a Japanese toilet, climbed Mount Fuji, walked through the Bamboo Forest, photobombed a load of tourists and rode a panda.
Massive massive thank you to Wagamamas for sending us all the way to Japan to try our favourite Katsu Curry. Can we do it again now?

本隆寺 京都 / Honryu-ji Temple Kyoto / 교토
当寺は、慧光無量山本妙興隆寺（略して本隆寺）と称し、日蓮門下京都十六本山の一で、法華宗真門流の総本山である。
開山は中山大納言親通卿の子、日真で、後柏原帝より大和尚の称号を下賜された。
長享２年（１４８８）堂宇を四条大宮に創立したが、四代日映のとき、天文法乱のため諸堂焼失、１５４２年、杉若若狭守旧地の現在地に建立した。
十代日遵の時、京都御所の炎上により類焼、明暦３年（１６５７）名匠坂上作左衛門が再建、以来享保１５年（１７３０）、天明８年（１７８８）の二度に京都大火は、西陣一帯を焼野原としたが、当寺は、奉祀している鬼子母神の霊験によって焼失をまぬがれ、「不焼寺」として有名である。
境内３３００坪に西陣五井の一の名井「千代乃井」及び七代目脩に由来する「夜泣止松」がある。
本堂、祖師堂、客殿、三光殿、鐘楼、経蔵、宝蔵、南門、塔頭八ヶ院等の諸堂を有し、宝物には、日蓮上人真筆大曼陀羅、法華玄論、十六羅漢絵像、名器三管、法華経七万字版木等がある。
