I am coming from Australia to do a few things away from the main 3 and I have never been north of Tokyo before. I found the Takayama Inari Shrine and wanted to see if anyone had been here before and had some information on the location and accessibility as well.
I looking to go between the 4-6th Feb 2026 on the way up to the Sapporo Snow Fest. The main questions I have are following, but I am also interested in any other advice or recommendations around this that you may have!
- Is this easily accessible from Aomori city? I have been looking at Google Maps for times and it seems it could be limited options for getting there and back.
- Should I take food with me or are there food options nearby/within (like Fushimi Inari in Kyoto, but I guess this would be a lot quieter of a location)?
- How long should I allocate for exploring this (as an estimate but not including the travel)?
- Are there any special traditions or customs for this particular location?
I appreciate the help!
