Kasuga Shrine

This massive shrine was the shrine of the Fujiwara Family, who held much influence over the Imperial Family in early Japanese history. The shrine itself has a long pathway leading up to it, and over 3000 stone and bronze lanterns. During the Meiji Period, it was one of the seven topmost-ranking Imperial shrines.
