Experience a mystical world where tradition meets nature. Located at the foot of Mt. Moiwa, this historic shrine invites you to walk through a striking path of red gates into a realm of peace and reflection.

Sapporo Fushimi Inari Shrine is a distinguished branch of the famous Fushimi Inari Taisha in Kyoto. Situated on a hillside with a panoramic view of the city, it is cherished as a "power spot" for good fortune and relationships. As you step into the corridor of 27 vermilion torii gates, the city’s bustle fades, replaced by the gentle rustle of leaves and a crisp atmosphere that clears the mind.

The shrine offers captivating views in every season. From the vivid contrast of summer greens and red gates to the stunning sight of red against deep winter snow, the scenery is always breathtaking. Beside the main building sits the "Negai-ishi" (Wish Stone). Legend says that by letting go of one thing you hold dear, a wish will be granted. Touching this stone offers a moment of quiet reflection that becomes a highlight of any Hokkaido trip.

At dusk, lanterns cast a soft glow along the corridor, creating an ethereal atmosphere. For those seeking a quiet moment to reconnect with themselves during their Sapporo travels, this shrine provides a perfectly serene escape where body and spirit feel purified.
