Fushimi-inari
Taisha shrine

As the role of agriculture diminshed,deities were enrolled to ensure prosperity in business.
Nowa days,the shrine is one of Japan`s most popular,and is the head shrine for some 30,000 Inari
shrines scattered the length and breadth of Japan.
The entire complex,consisting of five shrines,sprawls across the wooded slopes of Mt Inari.
A pathway wanders 4 km up the mountain and is lined hundreds of red torii ( arches).
There are also dozens of stone foxes. The fox is considered the messenger of Inari,the god of cereals,and by extevsion the stone foxes,too,are often referred to as Inari.
On an incidental note,the Japanese traditionally see the fox as the fox as a sacred,somewhat
mysterious figure capable of ``possessing ``humans-the favoured point of entry under the fingernails. The key often seen in the fox`mounth is for the rice granary.
