Ueno Toshogu Shrine
Since 1651, the Karamon (or Chinese-style gate) of the Ueno Toshogu Shrine in Tokyo, Japan, has protected the Shinto-style destination. It’s gold-plated, which makes the carvings (which include birds and flowers) glisten. Legend has it that when it becomes dark, the two dragons on either side of the Shinobazu-no-ike Pond descend to drink.
