Hiking
The Atago Jinja Ichi-no-Torii in Kyoto marks the traditional starting point for the mountain pilgrimage up Mount Atago to the head shrine, which is dedicated to the God of Fire Prevention. Visiting the shrine is a challenging five-hour round-trip trek popular for receiving fire protection charms, with an annual Sennichi Mairi event granting the benefit of 1,000 visits. The gate symbolizes the boundary between the mundane and the sacred mountain path.
