Fushimi Inari Taisha.

Fushimi Inari-Taisha

Pour se rendre au sanctuaire de Fushimi Inari-Taisha situé dans les collines au sud de Kyoto il faut prendre un omnibus à partir de Central Station. Bien que le train se rende aux confins du Kansai et compte plus de vingt stations presque tous les voyageurs descendent au deuxième arrêt, celui d’Inari. Aussi le parvis du sanctuaire qui s’étend juste devant la gare est-il noir de monde. Dans une ambiance joyeuse Les Japonais venus en pèlerinage font des selfies devant les renards en pierre, symboles des lieux, et que l’on aperçoit un peu partout.
Pour parvenir au sommet du sanctuaire bâti au VIIIème siècle en l’honneur des divinités du Riz et du Saké, il faut monter, quatre kilomètres durant, sous une forêt de torii…
Si la foule est innombrable dans le premier kilomètre d’ascension, elle se délite rapidement vaincue par la chaleur et la déclivité. Après deux kilomètres le « tunnel vermillon » de déploie pratiquement vide de pèlerins…




To get to the sanctuary of Fushimi Inari-Taisha located in the hills south of Kyoto it is necessary to take an omnibus from Central Station. Although the train goes to the borders of Kansai and has more than twenty stations, almost all the passengers get off at the second stop, Inari station. So the square of the sanctuary that stretches just in front of the station is overcrowded. In a joyful atmosphere the Japanese who came on pilgrimage make selfies in front of the stone foxes, symbols of the place, that one sees everywhere.
To reach the summit of the sanctuary built in the eighth century in honor of the deities of rice and sake, one must climb, for four kilometers, under a forest of Torii…
If the crowd is innumerable in the first kilometre of ascent, it breaks quickly defeated by heat and slope. After two kilometres, the “vermilion tunnel” is practically empty of pilgrims…
