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!

It is the cherry blossoms of Iinuma Shrine in Iida City, Nagano Prefecture.
Splendid! It's a masterpiece!
