The Yomeimon Gate,Toshogu Shrine,Nikko
This is the front side of Yomeimon Gate. The symbol of Nikko Toshogu, this gate displays a collection of the craftsmanship and decorative techniques representative of the beginning of the Edo Period. The carvings on the gate total 508 and include people, animals -real and imaginary-, flowers, birds, patterns, and so on. Because the viewers will not get tired of admiring the beauty of the gate until twilight, it is also called the Higurashimon (the Evening Gate).==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number96‐107‐0]
