「Senbon Torii 」
location: 京都市伏見区・伏見稲荷大社



~ Senbon torii are a symbol of Fushimi Inari Taisha ~
Fushimi Inari Taisha is the head shrine of more than 30,000 shrines in Japan dedicated to Inari. Fushimi Inari Taisha is known for many torii gates. The name "Senbon Torii" does not mean that there are 1,000 torii gates. There are about 10,000 torii gates on the grounds of the shrine. The torii gates were all offered by worshipers at the shrine. The Senbon Torii is often featured on the cover of travel guidebooks.


~千本鳥居~
伏見稲荷大社は日本に3万以上ある稲荷を祀った神社の総本宮で、たくさんの鳥居があることで知られています。「千本鳥居」という名前は、鳥居が1,000本あることを意味している訳では無く、境内には約1万本の鳥居があります。旅行ガイドブックの表紙でよく目にする千本鳥居は伏見稲荷大社のシンボルです。
