This is a must see tourist sight on any visit to Kyoto. - Tripadvisor

The best known of the Kyoto shrines, Fushimi Inari Shrine is visually stunning: thousands of torii gates form an unbroken tunnel of red leading to the crest of Mount Inari.

Really gets one thinking about the horrors of war. Respectful way to remember the victims of tragedies. - Tripadvisor

Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is located downtown. The Atomic Bomb Dome is the symbol of Hiroshima. It is dedicated to the legacy of Hiroshima as the first city in the world to suffer attack of an atomic bomb. Today there are monuments, museums, and lecture halls which over a million tourists visit per year.

One of the most famous sites to visit in Japan, the Torii Gate is so iconic. I was lucky to see it from high tide to low tide, and would love to have seen it at sunset. - Tripadvisor

Miyajima Island/Itsukushima Shrine is in the Island Sea and the home of Itsukushima Shrine built in 593 with its famed floating torii gate.

The size of the temple and the Buddha it houses is immense. It's crazy how the temple used to be even bigger before the Lightning striker that caused a fire centuries ago. Well worth the visit! - Tripadvisor

Todaiji Temple was completed in 752 with one of the largest bronze statues in the world. it has an imposing gate supported by eighteen 25m high pillars Blown down by a typhoon in 962, the gate was re-built in 1199.

Blown away by the beauty of enjoying art outdoors. This is an incredible day out, in a gorgeous setting. I cannot recommend this higher. - Tripadvisor

Japan's first open-air museum, the Hakone Open Air-Museum offers an impressive collection of artworks to enjoy while beautiful Japanese cherry blossoms bloom over the park during the lively Spring cherry blossom season.
