Rare nationwide! [Itsukushima Shrine] Stone Karahafu Torii

The shrine was originally built by Taira no Kiyomori, who enshrined the Three Muses of Munakata at Itsukushima Shrine for his mother, the Gion no Nyogo. After Gion-no-mikoto was enshrined together, the shrine became the guardian shrine of the Kujo family.

The pond where ducks swim and the Chisuitei Pavilion remain as remains. The stone torii gate is of an unusual shape with a Chinese gable and is one of the three most unusual torii gates in Kyoto.
