Japan: around Fushimi Inari

I was hungry after my day at the shrine. So I had a mooch around the local village and found these yummy, crunchy little biscuits shaped like fish! They are sweet-tasting. (If anyone knows the reason they are shaped like fish, please comment!)


Here's what the shop and village looked like. Traditionally, low-rise, wooden buildings are more common in Japan. Without advanced techniques, tall, brick or stone buildings do not fare well in earthquakes.
