Discover a Quiet and Peaceful side of Kyoto
Fushimi Inari Taisha shrine is one of the most popular spots for foreign tourists. The approach to the shrine and the grounds, especially the Senbon Torii (thousand torii gates), are often crowded with tourists.
However, early mornings and evenings are less crowded, allowing you to experience a more serene and mysterious atmosphere.
Similarly, Arashiyama Bamboo Grove and Kiyomizu-dera Temple are also best visited early in the morning.
