Sakuragaoka Girls' High School Gate
In *K-ON!*, the gate and main building of Sakuragaoka Girls' High School are the central stage of the story. After school, Yui Hirasawa, Mio Akiyama, Ritsu Tainaka, and Tsumugi Kotobuki often walk out through the gate, with the setting sun casting golden light on the red-brick facade. They chat about tea parties and head to the station. The bicycle parking area on the right and the flowerbed on the left are also frequently shown backgrounds.
