The Mysical Sunset From the Torii in the Sky at Takaya Shrine! A Place to Take Breathtaking Photos in Kagawa, Japan
The Torii in the Sky: Takaya Shrine Video Introduction
This video, titled "A Spectacular View of Takaya Shrine's Torii in the Sky at Sunset in Kanonji, Kagawa" (話題の絶景…高屋神社「天空の鳥居」からみる圧巻の“夕日” 香川・観音寺市), was uploaded by "Setonaikai Broadcasting" (KSB瀬戸内海放送).
A Spectacular Sunset From the Torii in the Sky
Takaya Shrine is located at the summit of the 404-meter-tall Mt. Inazumi, between the cities of Kanonji and Mitoyo in Kagawa Prefecture. The torii gate of the main shrine is called "Tenku no Torii" (天空の鳥居, "The Torii in the Sky") in Japanese. From the torii, visitors can look out over the city of Kanonji and the Seto Inland Sea. Beyond the torii, the sea and sky can be seen and it truly feels like you're floating in the sky. It's also a popular power spot for beautiful sunsets.

Takaya Shrine, also known as "Inazumi Shrine" or "Inazumi-san," sits at the top of Mt. Inazumi and is a well-known local shrine; in 2018, it was selected as one of the 88 Views of Shikoku.
Climbing up from the lower shrine to the main shrine, you'll find the middle shrine on the way. The view from each of the torii gates is so spectacular that you'll want to stop and take a look. There are a total of 270 stone steps 'til you reach the top, and if you're lucky, you may see a wild rabbit on the way up. In spring, the large festival "Takaya Matsuri" is held, with a parade of drum stands amidst the blooming cherry blossoms and lion dances. The deities of the festival are Ninigi no Mikoto, Ukemochi, and Konohana Sakuya. The deities are believed to provide maritime safety, protection from floods, traffic safety, safe childbirth, a good harvest, and prosperous business.
