The Twin Toriis

I really love taking nighttime photos of the Torii Gate Bridge at Disney California Adventure's San Fransokyo Square, because the illuminated lights prominently draw out the suspension bridge cables that evoke similarities to the Golden Gate Bridge. But this structure looks good in the daytime too, because its saturated red-orange hue are pretty iconic and prominent.  The Imagineers did a great job making the subtle but evocative changes of adding these torii gate-like pylons to turn an understated truss bridge from Pacific Wharf into a photogenic suspension-like bridge.  And doubles as a reference to the Golden Gate Bridge that greeted guests at Sunshine Plaza in Disney California Adventure's original entrance land!

The Torii Gate Bridge is vibrant and iconic during the daytime too.
