Like most Shinto shrines, the entrance to the Heian Jingu Shrine is marked by a vermilion Torii. At almost 25 meters, it dominates the entire Okazaki-Koen Park.

The Torii of Heian-jingu is the second biggest one in Japan. So you can see it from many spots, like the Suirokaku Water Bridge aqueduct next to Nanzenji (see my pictures).

This is the impressively huge Gate that is leading up to the shrine.
The Kyoto Museum of Art is right adjacent to the gate. The shrine is another 200m down the road.
