What you'll see
“Ise Jingu shrine” is the “spiritual hometown of the Japanese people” and is said to be the place to visit Ise at least once in a lifetime.
Despite being repeatedly relocated over the past 1,300 years, the shrine and its ancient and new forms have been passed down through the generations, and its inside aspires to resemble a museum of Japanese culture.
Okage-Yokocho, just outside the boundaries of the Ise Jingu Inner Shrine, is lined with more than 50 stores selling carefully selected local delicacies and souvenirs of Ise, and you can freely stroll around this area.
Enjoying to the full the wonderful attractions that Ise has to offer is inconvenient to do using a bus or taxi!
How about making use of your spare time before or after worshipping/walking to enjoy some prime spots around Okage-Yokocho?
A new travel style to enjoy sightseeing and staying at your own pace with a dedicated map in hand was born in Ise, including photo spots, such as the "stepping stones" upstream of the sacred Isuzu River flowing at the foot of the inner shrine, and enjoy forest bathing under the sparkling sunlight through the path of trees in the “Forest of the Gods”, and greeting the gods for opening the way and the arts.
Take this opportunity to visit not only Jingu Shrine and Okage-Yokocho, but also Ise's great nature and make this trip a memorable one with your loved ones.
