【Hear the Murmur of the River】 Keiryu Bridge

The Keiryu Bridge is located in front of Heian Jingu Shrine.
The vermilion color matches the atmosphere of Heian Jingu Shrine, creating a tasteful landscape.
Along with the sound of the river, the mountains seen from the bridge are rich in nature and feel very Japanese.
Stand on the Keiryu Bridge and capture the image of your bright future together in your photos.

ランドマークである鳥居

The 24-meter- large torii gate is located at the end of Keiryu Bridge.
Many people may associate Heian Jingu Shrine with the large torii Gate.
It is impressive, yet simple and elegant in its beauty.
The place where the vermilion color looks good against the blue sky and the trees along the approach to the shrine look good is on the Heian Shrine side of the Keiryu Bridge.
A photo of the back of the walk toward the large torii gate is also recommended.
