Ueno Tōshō-gū is a Shinto shrine located in the ward of Taitō in Tokyo, Japan. Tōshō-gū shrines are characterized by the enshrinement of Tokugawa Ieyasu under the name Tōshō Daigongen. This photograph shows Ueno Tōshō-gū's golden gate, which is a karamon, a type of mon in Japanese architecture characterized by the use of karahafu, a curved gable with a style peculiar to Japan. This karamon was built in 1651 and the Government of Japan has designated it an Important Cultural Property.
