The gate, also known as a torii, is at the main entrance to UNESCO Shuri Castle,
the most popular World Heritage Site in Okinawa, Japan.

Shuri Castle is one of the places I'm looking forward to seeing when I visit Okinawa. I hear the Shureimon Gate is probably the most popular part of the sight and a place where tourists stop to take lots of pictures because it is such an iconic image.
