The Torii Gate over water is a stunning and iconic sight in Japan, located at the Itsukushima Shrine on the island of Miyajima. This gigantic vermillion red gate appears to float on the water during high tide, creating a mesmerizing and picturesque scene that attracts visitors from around the world. It's definitely a must-see if you're in the area!


TIP - You cross this and views of Mt Fuji while sailing over Lake Aishi in the pirate ship so keep an eye out while you're on the deck!
