伏見稲荷ランドスケープ
スズメの丸焼きが名産。千本鳥居で有名なお稲荷さんですが千本鳥居の千本は言葉どおりの意味ではなく「たくさん」という意味だそうです。もしかして「針千本飲~ます」も同様の意味なのでしょうか

"Grilled sparrow":https://www.google.com/search?q=q=スズメの丸焼&tbm=isch is a specialty here. Although it is famous for its "Thousand Torii", that's not meant to be taken literally -- it's just a figure of speech. Perhaps something like " "drink a thousand needles":http://thejapanesepage.com/book/export/html/301 "
