These Tori gates are part of the Fushimi-Inari Shrine in the mountains of south Kyoto. The gates are prayers to the gods for a good rice crop and many of them are provided by the sake makers who operate in this part of town.The vermilion color is for protection from evil spirits and any of you who ever had too much sake know that it can be one evil spirit. Sorry kids I just had to.
