Sightseeing

Message from worldpitou

Sasuke Inari Shrine in Kamakura is a quirky and mystical spot where visitors can immerse themselves in the world of the Fox God. Legend has it that the shrine was built to honor a white fox messenger who helped the first Shogun of Kamakura. As you wander through the dense forest canopy, you'll be surrounded by countless fox statues of all shapes and sizes, creating a slightly eerie yet fascinating atmosphere. Don't miss the long staircase lined with red torii gates leading up to the shrine courtyard, where you'll find miniature white foxes scattered around mini-shrines. It's a unique and surreal experience that will leave you feeling like you've stepped into another world.
