Torii winding through the temple grounds.

Takayama Inari Shrine (高山稲荷神社, Takayama Inari Jinja) is a shrine located in Tsugaru, Aomori Prefecture, Japan. The shrine is dedicated to the Shinto god Inari Ōkami. Takayama Inari Shrine is notable for the many torii that wind along its path. Next to the shrine is a memorial dedicated to American sailors who died in 1889 when their ship wrecked off the coast of Shariki Village (now a part of Tsugaru).[1]
