平安神宮鳥居と京都市立美術館After passing by the gates of the Kyoto Zoo, we rode along the canal that separates the street and the Kyoto Municipal Museum of Art.
In the distance is the largest torii gate in Japan.
Spanning the road that runs between the Kyoto Municipal Museum of Art and, across the street, the Museum of Modern Art is the Heian Shrine Torii gate.
It was built in 1929, it is 24.2 meters high (79 feet); the top rail is 33.9 meters (111 feet) long.
This is in the Okazaki area of Kyoto, which is filled with museums and temples.
It is a 10-15 minute ride from downtown Kyoto.
Another view of the gate can be seen at the top of this blog.
