View over Kyoto on Honshu, Japan. Seemingly forever, the torii-alleys stretch to this scenic spot.
A torii (literally translated: bird's resting place) is a traditional Japanese gate found in Shinto shrines. Thus, they mark the entrance to sacred places but can also be bought and put up by Japanese who wish for luck, health and the like. |
