Toyosaki Konpira Shrine

Rising from the Ocean: The Red Torii Gate of Toyosaki Konpira Shrine

The village of Shosanbetsu is located along a stretch of the Sea of Japan’s coast.  

Running south to north, the Ororon Line carries travelers through the area.  

With the beautiful coastline on one side, it is easy to see why so many photographers have been making their way to Shosanbetsu.  


Among the most popular sights is the red torii gate of Toyosaki Konpira Shrine, standing strikingly just offshore at Cape Konpira.  

Why not visit this spot and try your hand at capturing the vivid red structure set against the endless blue of the sky and sea?  


If you are a romantic at heart, you may prefer capturing the setting sun glowing through the gate.  

Night owls might enjoy visiting on a starry evening, when the torii seems to be embraced by the cosmos.  


Whatever your preference, the Toyosaki Konpira Shrine gate will not disappoint!
