Shot in Okusaga, Kyoto.

Went canoeing in Hagure, Saitama and I managed to turn red thanks to a nice sunburn. Was super tired the next day after a ton of canoeing but still managed to get a good amount of sightseeing done in Gyoda. Visited Oshi Castle (忍城) and the nearby museum, bought some tabi shoes from a shop that’s been in business for more than 100 years (創作足袋千代の松), stopped by a couple of shrines and enjoyed some of Japan’s scenic beauty. Had a total blast, and one of the locals even gave us some incense as a gift for visiting Gyoda!

Oarai, Ibaraki It is famous as a photo spot for the morning sun, but it is also nice at night.

I took this photo last fall when I went to Yasukuni Shrine to see ginkgo. The balance between sunlight, ginkgo biloba and torii gates is so good that I want to go see it again this year!

This is a photo of Takagi Shrine in Isahaya City, Nagasaki.

This photo was taken when I went to Kawaguchi Sengen Shrine in March this year. The sun and torii gates were dazzling and I was energized!

Amazing.. This is a scene that I never get tired of seeing. It's such a scenic location already and then you have the beautiful torii gates as well. There's something about the gates at Motonosumi Inari Shrine and the ones at Fushimi Inari Shrine that look so mystical, like they're really transporting you to another world. On a side note, I've been seeing a lot of Yamaguchi Prefecture lately and I'm starting to realize that it has a bunch of cool stuff. The Akiyoshido caves and Tsunoshima Bridge, and the weather just looks fantastic. Looking forward to more sunny weather like this, so hopefully the rainy season isn't too bad. It's definitely a bit earlier than usual this year, that's for sure.

This is a photo of the torii gate and the starry sky in Saga. It's a little, but my personal favorite point is that the torii gate is a reflection lol.

Wow this is really incredible! What an amazing entrance to a temple. It's an unusual design for a torii (at least from the ones I've seen) but it really fits the image. I love the lanterns on both sides as well. They really compliment the white and pink of the cherry blossoms with their glow. It's kind of crazy how much awesome stuff I keep seeing in Nagano prefecture. I've seen tons of cool places in Akita, Saitama, Hokkaido, etc. but I still haven't gotten a chance to check out Nagano and every time I see something amazing like this I just feel like I'm missing out. It looks like this is called Iinuma Shrine although it's hard to find information about it. Looks like a cool place to visit though, I'll have to do some more digging on this!

Asago City, Hyogo Prefecture, in front of Himemiya Shrine.

Wow, what a great photo! Capturing the torii, the Victory? (I don't think it's the Queen Ashinoko at least), and Mt. Fuji all in one shot. I'd love to see this same shot in autumn when the leaves change, I think it'd be really beautiful. I want to go for a cruise on the Ashinoko as well if possible, I think it'd be a really cool idea for a date so I need to look into that lol. Plus I still haven't gotten to see Hakone much so it'd make a great destination to visit next. I guess next time I head south a bit otherwise it's a bit of a long train ride. Either way, I'm looking forward to when the opportunity arises!

Looking at this picture I realized I've never actually seen fireworks in the snow. I've done them for New Years of course, but living in Tokyo it doesn't snow much. Also where I was from the in the US we didn't get a lot of snow either. This looks like a lot of fun though. I didn't get to do fireworks this New Years but I was able to have a lot of fun still. Ate some great food with some great people and had fun playing games together. I've visited Aomori a few times in the past though and it was a lot of fun so maybe next year I'll head out there and enjoy these fireworks for New Years! Either way, this Kabushima Shrine looks really beautiful on top of the hill. The path leading up to the shrine and the torii gates are really neat. I looked it up a little more and it looks like a lot of seagulls gather at the shrine as well. Makes sense since it's right next to the beach. Really awesome!

The underwater torii gate of Hakone Shrine on Lake Ashi is called the "Torii of Peace". The torii gate floating in the mist is even more fantastic.

「Princess firefly advent」 location：Western Japan ＊ ～Princess firefly advent at the torii～ Deep in the dusky forest covered with trees during the daytime, the torii appears quietly ahead of the path that the beast trails. There are no people visiting this creepy place at midnight. After midnight, this place where nobody is here, the princess firefly descends and mysterious dance begins.

? Kagawa Prefecture / Takaya Shrine It is famous as a "power spot of fortune" and "torii gate in the sky", and it is a ✨ superb view spot overlooking the Seto Inland Sea. When you go by your own car, the car navigation system often does not guide you correctly, so We recommend that you go to the Takaya Shrine Hongu parking lot on Google Maps.

「The vermilion torii world」 location： 香川県東かがわ市・白鳥神社 ＊ Shiratori Shrine has a legend that the spirit of Yamato Takeru Nomikoto who flew away as a swan fell down. In the precincts, there are many samurai donated by lords from generation to generation. Impressive vermilion torii are lined up at the Inari Shrine next to the precincts.

This is a sunset view of Miyajima in Hatsukaichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture. The torii gate on Miyajima Island, which can be seen differently every day depending on the tide, will never get bored no matter how many times you see it.

It is a former Nosumi Inari shrine in Yamaguchi Prefecture. It is a beautiful place with a series of red torii gates and a beautiful contrast between the blue sea.
