Sarutahiko Shrine | Tokyo 2025 | Snugug Photography

The image shows a traditional Japanese shrine with a red torii gate, a small red fence, and a paved path leading to the entrance. The torii gate is tall and wide, with two thick, red pillars that support a horizontal beam. The gate is painted a vibrant red, and the horizontal beam has a slightly curved shape. The entrance to the shrine is flanked by two black wooden doors, which are partially open. The doors are made of multiple panels, with a smaller window-like section at the top. The doors are partially covered by white fabric curtains with intricate designs. Behind the entrance, there are more red and black structures that seem to be part of the shrine complex. The path leading to the entrance is paved with gray stones, and there are a few small trees and shrubs growing around the edge of the path. In front of the entrance, there is a small red fence, also made of multiple panels. This fence is made of a very bright, almost cherry-red color and has a simple, almost utilitarian design. It is positioned on the path, creating a barrier but not blocking access. This image captures the traditional architecture of a Japanese shrine, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, creating a sense of peace and tranquility. — Sarutahiko Shrine

From this angle, the shrine looks like a dragon to me. The gate is its snout, the roof trusses the eyes, the doors its mouth, and the hanging cloth its teeth
