The step portion of Itukushima shrine torii
Actual size

The close-up of the step portion of Itukushima shrine torii.
If it does like this and sees, it turns out well the portion soaked and exposed to the step of torii,
and sea water, and that its even the upper portion is swelling, swelling up and transforming a few including moisture.
Although that is right, since it is a natural tree too,
the great torii itself will surely be the thing which has been made in Kusunoki
and out of which such bruises come, if no less than 130 year passes.
