Aria - Shrine

In episode 5 of Aria the Natural they visit a shrine that seems to be based on Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto.

Lots of red torii gates of course.

And fox statues.

The statue that matches the one seen in the anime the most is located at the romon main gate in real life.

There's supposedly more than 10000 red torii gates here.

In a lot of places the gates are placed much more densely than what's shown in the show.

Not as many tablets on the gakuzuka supporting struts here.

On the reverse side of the gates you can see writing telling you who donated them.

This is the Senbon Torii, the most famous part of the shrine, so there's lots of people stopping here.




I couldn't get a picture without anybody in it this time, but I had this picture from a previous time I visited this shrine because of Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha.

This is the gehaiden worship hall.

And finally a picture of one of the many fox altars.



No map since this is a famous tourist attraction.

This location was visited on 2019/04/15. The Senbon Torii picture without anybody in it is from 2014/04/09.
