The map symbol for “Shrine” is ⛩.
Why is the torii shaped like this?
Have you ever thought about it?
It is said that ⛩ is symbolism of the kanji “天（heaven）”
A world of light spreads out from where the ⛩ stands.
It means that you’re entering the holy precinct from the mundane world (the world we live in)
When you go through the ⛩ with this in mind, you feel kind of calming, clean and pure.(^^♪
I hope kids say “Kanji characters are interesting!” (*^-^*)
I learned the topics of “huh?” to make my life better, which I’ll share with you.
I hope you will find it useful! (^^)!
