Fushimi Inari Taisha and a coffee oasis

We visited the famous and beautiful golden gates of Fushimi Inari Taisha. Many gates, many shrines, many people!


 It was an unbelievably hot day and when we began to make our way back down, we happen upon this small cafe, Vermillion. Aside from the much needed air conditioning, it served some amazing coffee. I even bought a bag of a special blend of beans they mixed right on the spot for me.
