This is “torii”. Torii is a gate of Jinja (Shinto shrine). Visitors had come this shrine from the street over there till tsunami attack. There was little shrine several meters on this side of torii. But a shrine was swept away by the angry waves completely.

There is nothing on this side of torii...

I always loved these gates.
And the symbolism here is all the more beautiful.

Perhaps the 'torii' is the true shrine, and that's why it still stands. :)

I'm fine.
Now I'm busy for replying on dA, when I stay in my home. :)

I think it's the best way for me to report the view of a general public from Japan to friends on dA. I'm thinking what I can do since I went back to Japan. I have a way of report to the world. It means dA gallery. A lot of visitors are looking my gallery. So, I want to tell one Japanese general public's view to visitors. Surely what I can do may be trivial. But I'm using my journal as a blog. :)
