Description Torii gates stand one after another, for what seems like eternity. Their endless guidance lead you through the forest paths... bringing you that much closer to an enlightened state.

Torii gates at the Fushimi Inari Shrine in Southern Kyoto, Japan.

This is one of the several places I really wanted to go to in Kyoto, so I was so happy I was able to get there! I didn't get my kitsune udon though... T_T And I love fried tofu.... But the feeling of walking through all of those torii cannot properly be expressed... ^_^;

I love the angle in this one. Also the colors are really vivid and stand out well. It's a great photo.

Thanks! It was interesting to see the varying color of the orange of the torii, since the lighter ones have worn with age... That orange is just so impressive and distinct!

The Fushimi Inari shrine is like the one place in Kyoto I should've gone to but didn't... ah well, next time. Good shot!
