ROMON GATE AND INARI SHRINE

Two giant torii painted in red-orange hue lead to the front of the Romon Gate at the shrine’s entrance. They are overwhelmingly huge and bright nobody can ever miss it! The Romon Gate is popular being donated  by the famous leader Toyotomi Hideyoshi when he prayed for his mother to recover from illness.

Behind the gate stands the shrine’s main building or Honden, and the other temple buildings.
