There are over 100, 000 torii gates in Japan. However, if you are planning a trip to Japan, some torii stand out from the rest. Tokyo' s Meiji Shrine was built in 1915 to honor a popular Japanese emperor. The shrine is located in a natural spot surrounded by forest and trees. At the entrance to the shrine is a huge wooden torii that has the Emperor' s seal on it. During Japanese New Year, it' s visited by more than three million people.
在日本有超過十萬座的鳥居。不過，如果你正打算去日本玩，有些鳥居較為脫穎而出。東京的明治神宮建於 1915 年以紀念一位受歡迎的日本天皇。這座神宮坐落於一個被森林及樹木環繞的自然景點。神宮的入口是一座巨大的木製鳥居，上頭刻有天皇的印章。在日本的新年期間，它有超過三百萬的觀光人次。
