全国32,000ある稲荷神社の総本山の存在である神社で正月に大勢の人々で
ごったがえすお寺です。
以下 Wikipadiaでの解説抜粋
Fushimi Inari Taisha (伏見稲荷大社?) is the head shrine of Inari,
located in Fushimi-ku, Kyoto, Japan.
The shrine sits at the base of a mountain also named Inari,
and includes trails up the mountain to many smaller shrines.
Since in early Japan Inari was seen as the patron of business,
each of the Torii is donated by a Japanese business.
First and foremost though, Inari is the god of rice.
Merchants and manufacturers worship Inari for wealth.
Donated torii lining footpaths are part of the scenic view.
This popular shrine is said to have as many as
32,000 sub-shrines (bunsha (分社?)) throughout Japan.[1]
