Itsukushima Shrine, located on the island of Itsukushima (commonly known as Miyajima) in Japan, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its iconic "floating" torii gate. This Shinto shrine, which dates back to the 6th century, is built over water, giving the illusion that it is floating during high tide. The shrine complex is dedicated to the deities of sea and storms, and it showcases traditional Japanese architecture harmoniously integrated with the natural beauty of its surroundings.
