One hundred and twenty-three torii run about 100 metres out towards the sea. A comparatively new shrine, built after a white fox appeared in the dream of a local fisherman. The torii went on being dedicated over more than a decade. The same structure as the thousand torii at Fushimi Inari or the lanterns at Kasuga Taisha, still working in postwar Japan.
