I've made a blog post about some "holy places" for this show -- real places used as backgrounds. For example, the double railway bridge over the Setogawa River at Ishiyama, in the eastern part of the city of Otsu, which is just northeast of Kyoto:



I've included a few more comparisons, along with a video of one fan's tour of sites, and links to Japanese pages with many more photos.

[off-topic] Since I love The Tale of Genji so much, I have to add that Lady Murasaki is supposed to have started writing that novel in August 1004 AD when she was living at the Ishiyama-dera temple, on the river about a mile south of the big bridges shown in the anime. [/off-topic]
