Japan Trip 2023 - Day 5 (Fushimi Inari Taisha) Part 2

Continued from Part 1. Pictures of the torii gates while descending, and some smaller shrines. There are literally tons of these small shrines scattered throughout the mountain.

I came upon a woman holding a cat in her lap, and immediately struck up a conversation with her about the cats in the area. This one was so friendly, and allowed me to pet it with no problems. It was such a dear. I asked for permission to take the picture above.

I also queried her about the way down and she pointed me in the right direction, so I thanked her and went on my merry way. I soon came upon a fork in the road, and here is where I made my 3rd big mistake of the day. Once again, the fork diverged into a path that seemed to be leading upwards or at least was flat enough to not be seen as a downward path, while a path with no torii gates leading into the mountain wilderness was headed down. Naturally, with my lack of experience climbing mountains, I decided heading down would be correct.

Once again, it was a path filled with no people. I passed a Japanese couple early on and the husband said "こんにちわ" to me but I was spacing out, and only when he said it a second time did I realize he was greeting me, and I hurriedly greeted him back while apologizing. It would be some time later before I realized why he had greeted me.

The path was once again steep and devoid of human activity for the most part. The two pictures above were of the stairs that I took part of the way. They were steep and dangerous once more, but at least they were stairs. Here's a video of the path and the surroundings I walked through, taken at 11:28 AM.

The path reminded me of the way I felt when I was walking along Tashirojima's deserted pathways, except that this time I knew there were tons of others on the same mountain as me. If something did happen to me here I could at least count on help arriving in time.

There were a few abandoned buildings and stuff like that along the path I walked too. I didn't think much of them, but I suppose they would be a sad sight to take in.

I came to a fork in the road which would prove to be my 4th big mistake of the day. I actually took a video of this fork, this was around 11:32 AM. The sign in the video clearly said to follow that particular way to a shrine, which would also likely lead me back to the main path, but I continued on in my mistaken belief that down was right and went downwards.

I must admit though, the path this time round was an actual road, so it wasn't so bad going down it, the steep stairs were early on and I was descending anyway. It was clear however somewhere I had gone wrong once again, but I didn't really mind since it was still the morning and I had planned to make Mt. Inari the main highlight of my time in Kyoto. I had estimated I would take no longer than 2 hours for the round trip up and down, and I ended up being way wrong thanks to all the mistakes I made. I wasn't in a rush to go anywhere else afterwards at least. Here's a video I took of part of the path after I left the fork.

Imagine my surprise when I exited into this residential area. I knew for sure that I had taken the wrong path somewhere. Still, my friends had mentioned that they also exited into a residential area before, so while I was a little shocked, I wasn't too worried.

I did walk for a while and couldn't find a proper way out, so I decided to look for someone who could help me instead. I found an ojiichan tending to some plants outside his home with a dog, so I asked him for directions. He kindly informed me that getting out of the district would be an almost fruitless endeavor taking quite some time, and that I was on the opposite side of Mt. Inari from where I had entered via the main entrance of the shrine. That was quite something to take in.

A little more discussion and querying ensued before he told me it would indeed be best to return the way I came, so I thanked him profusely and retraced my steps. At the place where I entered the residential area, I met two white guys who had also taken the wrong path that I had. We had a short chat where I advised them about not entering the residential area. One of them had a phone out and said that Google was telling him to walk along the base of the mountain to go back to the main part, an 18-minute walk. They did invite me to join them but I said I wanted to find out where we went wrong, so we parted ways as I climbed Mt. Inari for the 2nd time that day.

I reached the fork without incident, and went up the way to the shrine so clearly indicated by the fork's sign this time. I soon met a Japanese guy coming downwards, and immediately asked him about the way up. His response was that I was on the right path but "この階段はまだしばらく続く" to which I could only react to with an expression of laughter and pain. We both knew what that meant for me - another extremely tough climb. I thanked him for his info and help and began the second steep climb of the day, thinking to myself I didn't come to Japan for this and yet here I am.

These were part of the steep staircase and other climbing hazards I faced while re-climbing. At least, they had railings here. It wasn't as tough as the first time up but I still had to take one or two rests here and there huffing as I went. The picture was taken, once again, halfway up this particular flight of stairs as I paused to rest, so it's an upward and downward view. It was exhausting to have to do this twice in a day, to say the least, as I definitely wasn't used to it.

I exited at what I've been told is the halfway vantage point, where there were lots of people taking a rest, at about 12:05 PM. Finally, I could heave a sigh of relief, as I was back to the main path at last and there was (almost) no danger of getting lost once again or taking the wrong path. Here's a video to commemorate my reaching the proper halfway point. I also took a short break here.

I made my way down slowly despite the somewhat late hour for lunch, and came across this friendly cat above. There are indeed quite a number of cats scattered throughout the mountain, which was what was also told to me by the lady with the cat. It's nice to also see them here.

As I descended I came across a number of shops. I bought a shirt I thought looked nice and fitted me well at one of the shops, which I'll feature in the loot post after blogging about the entire trip. I also bought a small charm before all these shenanigans, when I first reached the place.

One of the things I've always wanted to try after seeing it in anime was amazake, and I was glad to finally have the chance to sit down for a cup. This cup was ￥500 at the shop I had it, with a very friendly obaasan informing me they only had warm amazake left, which was exactly what I wanted anyway since I don't take cold drinks. It was lovingly sweet but not overly so, and quite the refreshing drink to have after the ordeal.

I had a small chat with her as well and we were both in agreement that Kansai people were friendlier than Tokyo's. Her exact words were "知らんふりをする" when people asked them for help, damn.

After that I made my way back to the start point, where I finally did the coin toss and prayer. I waited for a small group of students approaching with their teacher, who explained what to do and I listened in so I wouldn't make a mistake. I followed his instructions of tossing the ￥100 coin (which I obtained as change from one of my purchases), 2 bows and 2 claps with a final bow while making the wish. Scratch that off the bucket list.

I returned to Kyoto Station from Mt. Inari and went looking for a rather late lunch (about 1 PM). I wasn't too bothered by now on what to eat so long as it was filling, so I went inside some 定食 restaurant and ordered a soba + tatenoko (bamboo shoot) rice set for around ￥1200-1300, it was quite fine and more importantly, filling.

Continued in Part 3

たーくさん調べて、やっと歯医者の初診日。検査や問診で今日は時間がないからと治療は次回という事です。涼しいから、隣駅まで歩いて、あそこに行くー⁉️ いきなり甘いものは全部吸収しちゃうからと。たこ焼きを食べて、2km位歩いてからのおやつ😅 結局は飲み物だけ飲んで、家で食べました🍵 今日は手作りおやつは無し。甘味用の煮切りみりんをお姉ちゃんが作ったけど、沸騰させた時に泡立っちゃったみたいで、カラメルの塊みたいになっちゃった💦これを使って後で何か作ろう‼️ 昨日は、お弁当無くなって残っていた梅干しを使い梅ご飯。オートミールと豆乳、黒糖のクッキーは分量を変え少し丁寧に作ってみた。繊細ではない、ゴツゴツ感が美味しいのです😊 ＃抹茶 #ほうじ茶 #今川焼き #甘酒 #モヒート #ペリエ＃有機茶葉 #無農薬茶 #おやつ #梅ご飯 #オートミール #豆乳ヨーグルト #黒糖 #抹茶カスタード #レモンあん #抹茶ペリエモヒート #麹甘酒のほうじ茶ラテ #matcha #hojicha #imagawayaki yaki #amazake #mojito #perrie #snack #riceplum #oatmeal #soymilkyogurt #brownsugar #matchacustard #lemonbeanpaste https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg6hzcPPCYj/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Historical Teahouse

According to a 2008 interview of the proprietor, Tatsuo Yamamoto, the Amazake-chaya Teahouse was established in the early 1600s during the Edo Period (1603 to 1867) to provide relief and refreshments to travelers on the ancient Tokaido Road, a cobblestone “highway” that linked the imperial court in Kyoto with seat of the Shogunate in Edo (modern-day Tokyo).

The interview with Mr. Yamamoto revealed that he had hopes that his son, Satoshi, would take over for him if and when the time was right. Since that interview in 2008, I can happily confirm that Mr. Yamamoto’s son, Satoshi, has indeed succeeded his father in operating the teahouse by the same family for 13 generations!
