Aria - Shrine

In episode 5 of Aria the Natural they visit a shrine that seems to be based on Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto.



Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 11m15s


Lots of red torii gates of course.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 11m22s


And fox statues.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 02m37s


The statue that matches the one seen in the anime the most is located at the romon main gate in real life.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 04m39s


There's supposedly more than 10000 red torii gates here.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 04m51s


In a lot of places the gates are placed much more densely than what's shown in the show.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 05m05s


Not as many tablets on the gakuzuka supporting struts here.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 05m40s


On the reverse side of the gates you can see writing telling you who donated them.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 06m42s


This is the Senbon Torii, the most famous part of the shrine, so there's lots of people stopping here.




I couldn't get a picture without anybody in it this time, but I had this picture from a previous time I visited this shrine because of Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 06m43s


This is the gehaiden worship hall.




Image from Aria the Natural Episode 5 - 06m26s


And finally a picture of one of the many fox altars.



No map since this is a famous tourist attraction.

This location was visited on 2019/04/15. The Senbon Torii picture without anybody in it is from 2014/04/09.

Your Name - Shinkaisansya Shrine

The kagura-den stage shown in Your Name is supposedly based on one located at Shinkaisansya Shrine in real life. The closest train station is Usuda Station, but it's quite far and there's no rental bicycle places nearby, so it might be better to rent a car to get here. Image from Your Name - 14m31s Full view of the stage. Image from Your Name - 14m37s Side of the building. Image from Your Name - 14m48s In real life the back of the stage is seen from this angle instead of the front. Image from Your Name - 15m00s Since the position of the stage isn't the same it's difficult to match this shot. Image from Your Name - 15m03s The insides of the roof is different here. Image from Your Name - 15m10s Back of the stage. Image from Your Name - 15m16s There's another building right in front of the stage in real life. Image from Your Name - 15m22s Yotsuha and Mitsuha preparing to make kuchikamizake. Image from Your Name - 15m32s Tessie and Sayaka watches. Image from Your Name -...
