When you think of Togakushi Shrine, you think of the cedar trees.
This is an absolute must-see.

From the large torii gate at the entrance to the inner shrine,
you'll see a carpet of autumn leaves and fallen leaves.
As you walk toward the sacred grounds,
you'll come across a vermilion-lacquered gate with a thatched roof.
From here, a row of cedar trees over 400 years old stands.

The scenery is majestic, and you can't help but feel a sense of power.

It took about an hour to get here, as I was taking photos.

We ran out of time to go to the inner shrine, so we headed back.
