Walk the thousand torii gates before the crowds, and watch the sun rise over Kyoto.

By midday Fushimi Inari is packed. Before dawn, it belongs to you.

Walk the vermilion tunnel of torii with nothing but your own footsteps for company. Fox guardians watch as we climb Mount Inari to the Yotsutsuji crossing, where the first light spills over the city.

We finish with a warm breakfast on the shrine approach.
