IseJingu Geku (Toyouke-daijingu)
Begin your journey to the popular spots in Ise-Shima with IseJingu.
Toyouke-daijingu (Geku) is dedicated to Toyouke-no-Omikami. Toyouke-no-Omikami is the deity responsible for the meals of Amaterasu-Omikami in Naiku, and is also revered as the guardian deity of food, clothing, shelter, and industry.
Passing through the torii gate, stepping on the gravel, and walking along the approach path with gentle sunlight filtering through the trees, you will be filled with a refreshing feeling.
IseJingu Naiku (Kotaijingu)
It takes about 20 minutes by bus from Geku to Naiku.
IseJingu, known as the ``home of the Japanese spirit'' and affectionately known as ``Oise-san,'' is a must-see spot when visiting Mie Prefecture. Walking through the vast grounds surrounded by lush greenery will refresh your soul.
I go to visit Ise-san once a year.
Okage-yokocho
Okage-yokocho is lined with local gourmet and Ise souvenir shops.
A relaxing place where every day is as lively as a festival, but where time passes in a relaxing and nostalgic way. Enjoy eating around and buying souvenirs.
To enjoy Okage-yokocho to your heart's content, we recommend having lunch or eating around after visiting IseJingu, and then visiting the souvenir shops!

Sarutahiko-JinjaShrine
God of good luck
Okami is known as the ``God of Michihiraki'' who takes the lead in everything, guides people to the good, and opens the way for the world. This faith has spread throughout the country, and prayers are held every day to pray for direction, prevention of disasters, breaking ground, business prosperity, traffic safety, good luck, etc.
Meotoiwa(rocksofthemarriedcouple)
After visiting IseJingu, head to Meotoiwa(rocksofthemarriedcouple)!
The male rock is 9m high, the female rock is 4m high, and the large shimenawa rope that connects Meotoiwa(rocksofthemarriedcouple) 's rocks is 35m long. The Oshimenawahari Shinto ritual is held three times a year, and it is crowded with many people.
