Orange Gates

Shinto shrines have tori gates at the entrance.  I was happily surprised to find this, but others obviously knew of their existence.  There were two German tourists who had been waiting at the top of the stairs to take a photo of the gates without someone taking selfies at the bottom or walking up.  - Where are their problem solving skills?  I walked down, asked people to wait and then signalled them that the coast was clear to take a photo.

The series of 90 bright orange gates were at Hei Shrine near Nagatacho (the government district) in Tokyo.
