    Finish the tour with a short walk to the Sanno Shrine, and the One Legged Torii Gate marking its path. The Torii gate was half destroyed during the 1945 atomic bombing, but continues to stand tall. Just past the gate there are two magnificent Camphor trees that were both stripped clean by the blast, yet persisted and are still alive and flourishing today. A positive note to end the tour with!
