What to expect

Yutoku Inari Shrine is located in Kashima City, Saga Prefecture, also known as Chinzei Nikko. It is one of Japan's three major Inari shrines, along with Fushimi Inari Taisha in Kyoto and Kasama Inari Shrine in Tochigi Prefecture. It attracts nearly 3 million visitors annually, making it the second most visited shrine in Kyushu after Dazaifu Tenmangu. Local residents affectionately call Yutoku Inari Shrine "Yutoku-san," and it holds deep significance for those involved in agriculture and commerce.

The shrine is nestled among lush green mountains and waters, with its main structures like the main hall, front hall, and tower gate all painted in striking bright red, making it very eye-catching. Every year, about 2.8 million people come here to pray for a bountiful harvest, prosperous business, and safe travels. Saga Yutoku Inari Shrine also provides Chinese explanations for the fortune slips for Chinese visitors, so don't forget to try your luck with one when you visit.

Known as the "Sunlight of Zhenxi," Yutoku Inari Shrine is famous not only as one of Japan's three major Inari shrines but also as the Shrine of Flowers. Each season, the shrine is surrounded by a sea of blossoms. Plum, cherry, azalea, and peony flowers bloom in succession with the changing seasons, attracting visitors to admire them. Especially during the rainy season, the hydrangeas, with over 600 plants blooming in the gardens and along the streams, create a vibrant carpet covering the entire shrine. The flowers and green leaves, washed by the rain, become more vivid, and the hydrangeas adorned with water droplets present a unique charm.
