Japan Tenku-no Torii, Fujikawaguchiko
The photo shows the view over Tenku no torii to Mt. Fuji. The torii is still quite new, but is so popular that visiting times are very regulated. However, you can still visit before and after the official opening hours and enjoy the view.
Especially in the evening time for sunset, which is the best option for nice photos, there will be nearly no one else.

Photography Tips
We liked to take the photo from the same height as the torii. Integrating a person creates a reference to the image. We stayed until the blue hour, because only then could we see Mount Fuji. A telephoto lens works well to optimize the size ratio between the torii and Fuji.
