Meet me by the eastern bank of the Kohyaku River near the torii. |
A large torii sat propped against a wall, with an exotic plant winding around it as if it were a trellis. |
Another sign of this flexibility is found in regard to the color of the garden's torii style gate. |
And the red in the torii gate at the shrine entrance repels sins and keeps away evil spirits, while trees around the shrine protect spiritual grounds. |
Taki and Eiko stopped before the torii of the local Shinto shrine, staring at the cobblestone walkway surrounded by a lush, well-trimmed carpet of grass. |
At a steady trot, I made good progress, coming to the torii by the Kohyaku River by midday. |
