✵ Kagawa Prefecture 2022.09 I've always wanted to go to the Torii in the Sky⛩ There was a bus that could take you to the Torii (top), but I walked from the foot of the mountain lol It was pretty tough, but the sense of accomplishment I felt when I reached the top was amazing🥹 ✍️Memo ・Walking version☞From JR Kanonji Station, take the Hearts Shuttle Bus 20 minutes to Takaya Shrine Shimomiya. It's about an hour's walk🥲 ・Bus version ☞From JR Kanonji Station, take the Hearts Shuttle Bus and transfer at Kotohiki Park. From Kotohiki Park, take the Takaya Shrine Shuttle Bus for 10 minutes. If you're worried about mountain climbing, I recommend going by bus! 📍Kagawa Prefecture Takaya Shrine #0 yen trip January 2025 #Kagawa sightseeing

The Torii Gate in the Sky is one of the must-see spots when traveling to Kagawa Prefecture. To get there, you need to drive up a long, single road. The road is quite narrow, so you need to be careful not to go off the road and get your tires stuck in the ditch on the side of the road. You can take the best photos with the spectacular view of Kagawa Prefecture in the background of this torii gate. This sacred torii gate, the closest to heaven, has also appeared in movies. If you make a wish, it is sure to come true. Why not visit with a special someone? #0yentravelautumn

You can enjoy a panoramic view of Kagawa along with the torii gate! The path to the torii gate has many slopes and is more difficult than you might think, so we recommend wearing sneakers! Torii Gate in the Sky 📍Address: 2800 Takayacho, Kan'onji City, Kagawa Prefecture, 768-0001 #0 Yen Trip

I went to Takaya Shrine in Kagawa Prefecture, where there is a torii gate in the sky! It is one of the top tourist spots in Kagawa Prefecture with a spectacular view. There is a path to the torii gate in the sky that takes you to the top of the mountain and leads to your car. When I tried to go there by car, the road was closed due to falling rocks. I read on the Internet that falling rocks happen regularly and the road is closed quite often. So I decided to go on foot, but this is not something to be taken lightly. It is a 30-50 minute mountain climbing course that goes up a mountain path at about 40 degrees and is not adjusted, so it is a difficult path to walk on. At the end is a long staircase. Once you get over the stairs, you can see the torii gate in the sky! At the top of the mountain, there are vending machines selling souvenirs and drinks. Please note that there are no toilets. However, the spectacular view was worth going! Why not go and see one of the top spectacular views in Japan! #Solo travel #Kagawa Prefecture #Torii Gate in the Sky #Takaya Shrine #Japan #Shrine #Shrine tour #Scenic spot #Mountain climbing #Shikoku trip
