2025 Ise Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in April)

Meotoiwa in Futamiura are actually two large rocks on the seashore. The 9-meter-high Meotoiwa and the 4-meter-high Tsumawawa are connected by a 30-meter-long shimenawa rope in the middle, symbolizing everlasting love. This is also a traditional purification site. In the past, people who visited the Ise Shrine had to purify themselves here before going on. There is a small torii on the rock, which complements the torii of the Okitama Shrine, expressing a feeling of worship from afar. There are many frog sculptures near Okitama Shrine, which are called "Urban Frogs" by the locals. It is said that they are followers of the great god Sarutahiko. Because the Japanese word for frog, "カエル", has the same pronunciation as "返帰る", many people pray to find lost items and return home safely. Speaking of Sarutahiko Okami, friends who like Japan should be familiar with him. In the belief of eight million gods in Japan, Sarutahiko was responsible for leading the way when Amaterasu Omikami sent descendants to the world. This legend has been passed down to this day and has become the god of traffic safety and navigation. It is said that even the Metropolitan Police Department of Japan worships him. 📍Address: 〒519-0602 Mie Prefecture Ise City Futami-cho 575 #JanuaryGoodPlaces2025

This time, we will introduce the powerful power spot "Ise Shrine" in Ise City, Mie Prefecture, and "Okage Yokocho" where many shops are lined up! Ise Shrine has no nearest station and it takes about 40 minutes to walk there at the shortest, so we recommend going by car, taxi, or bus 🚗 As it is a powerful power spot, the moment I passed through the torii gate, it felt like the air changed to clear and fresh. Okage Yokocho is a tourist spot where you can easily get distracted by rows of restaurants and souvenir shops on both sides ✨ There is also the main store of Akafuku, which you may have tried at least once! ️ Both Ise Shrine and Okage Yokocho are larger than you might think, so please make sure you have plenty of time to visit👍 📍Ise Shrine 1 Ujikancho, Ise City, Mie Prefecture, 516-0023 📍Okage Yokocho 52 Uji Nakanokiricho, Ise City, Mie Prefecture #100 Travel Styles #Mie Tourism #Ise Shrine #Okage Yokocho #Food Tour #0 Yen Travel Autumn

Butasute is located about an 8-minute walk from the front of the Inner Shrine of Isejingu. It is a Japanese black beef specialty store founded in 1909. You can take out Ise beef, as well as freshly fried croquettes and minced cutlets. Both were filling, juicy and delicious. They are perfect for eating while walking around. At the restaurant attached to the restaurant, you can eat beef bowls, beef hotpot, their famous Ami-yaki, sukiyaki, and more.

#0yentravelautumn #Mie #Ise #Isejingu #IsejinguNaiku 📍Ujidatecho1, Ise City, Mie Prefecture "Koutaijingu" has been around since the time of Emperor Suinin, about 2000 years ago. Amaterasu Omikami is enshrined here. Crossing the Uji Bridge at the entrance to the Naiku, and walking along the long approach paved with gravel, you will arrive at the sacred area. The original Japanese landscape, known as the "hometown of the heart," spreads out before you. We visited the main shrine, Kotaijingu, and the auxiliary shrines, Aramatsuri-no-miya and Kazehiki-no-miya. The rain-soaked stone steps were also charming, and the beautiful scenery cleansed my soul.

You can enjoy "Kuromitsudango", which is popular in Ise, as well as "Mitarashidango", which is widely accepted. The combination of the hand-baked and fragrant dango and the original sauce is excellent. It's cheap and delicious, so I recommend it.

Akafuku mochi can be eaten at the main store, as well as at the directly managed stores in Ise and Futami, and at the Nagoya department store (2 stores). It is said that eating it with chopsticks is a relic from the time when mochi was a meal. The unique shape of Akafuku mochi represents the murmuring of the Isuzu River that flows through the grounds of Ise Shrine, the three stripes on the bean paste represent the clear water, and the white mochi represents the pebbles on the riverbed. It tastes even better when eaten with Akafuku's original roasted green tea. I ate some at the store and bought some Akafuku as a souvenir for myself.

#0yentravelautumn #Mie #Ise #Isejingu 📍279 Toyokawacho, Ise City, Mie Prefecture We often hear about "Ise Jingu". It is officially called "Jingu". There is an outer shrine and an inner shrine, and it is recommended to visit both, starting with the outer shrine. The outer shrine, "Toyouke Daijingu", enshrines Toyouke Omikami. Toyouke Omikami is also in charge of the meals of Amaterasu Omikami of the inner shrine, and is revered as the guardian deity of food, clothing, shelter, and industry. Passing through the torii gate and walking along the green approach to the shrine on the pebbles, you will be filled with a refreshing feeling. I visited the main shrine, Toyouke Daijingu, and the auxiliary shrines, Tagamiya, Tsuchimiya, and Kazemiya.

Ise Jingu Shrine, which can be called "the shrine" in Japan by the Imperial Daishin Shrine (inner palace) dedicated to Amaterasu Omikami Toyoshou Ojingu Shrine (Outer Palace) dedicated to the God of Toyoshou The 125 shrines cover an area almost equivalent to the center of Paris, France Pray for the prosperity of the royal family, the peace of the nation and a good harvest This bridge on the Isuzu River is the entrance to the inner palace It can also be said to be the dividing line between the holy world and the human mortal world Usually through torii ⛩️ is to go straight through But this is a sacred place Japanese 🇯🇵 will bow first before passing through To show respect for this holy place It has a history of 2000 years It has survived so many earthquakes and tsunamis but it still stands The forest🌳 is very tall and beautiful It has a very spiritual feeling Remember to go to the Mitaba in the Isuzu River Wash your hands clean with the stream water here Shooting is not allowed in the shrine You must do it yourself once in life Feel the aura of the Japanese shrine🇯🇵 forest🌳 Left in front of the door to the sanctuary TOEFL Yokomiya has street shopping and delicious food End image: Attached JR transportation Environment 🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻 Transportation 🐻🐻🐻 History 🐻🐻🐻🐻🐻 Amusement 🐻🐻🐻🐻 📍Ujikan-cho, Ise, Mie Prefecture #Forest #Ise Shrine #100 Ways to Travel #Japan Attractions #Outdoor Activities #Courage Bears Break into the World

Ise Grand Shrine is divided into the Outer Shrine and the Inner Shrine. It takes about half an hour to drive from the Outer Shrine to the Inner Shrine. The environment is quiet and it is very comfortable to take a slow walk here in the hot summer! What a great place to cleanse your soul! 👍👍 It takes about 1 hour to walk around the outer palace You can spend 2 hours walking in the inner palace There is a souvenir and food street outside the inner palace, with many food stores and pearl shops. #100TravelWays #OsakaAttractions #TouristAttractions #Ise Jingu Shrine

Location: Ise Jingu Address: 1 Ujidate-cho, Ise City, Mie Prefecture Access: 10 minutes by car from Ise IC Ise Jingu is a large shrine that even Japanese people have heard of, and it was a wonderful place where you could feel nature even on the way to worship. It's a large shrine, so you have to walk, but the air is fresh, so we arrived at the worship site surprisingly quickly. Even if you arrive at the shrine and climb the stairs, you can't go further inside, but the worship site is right after you climb the stairs, so everyone worships there before going home. It was about a 15-minute walk round trip, so I thought it was easy to visit. #Architecture and Culture #Mie Prefecture #Mie #Ise Jingu #Ise Shima

Okage Yokocho is a must-visit spot for tourists in Mie. There are about 50 gourmet and souvenir shops lined up here, as well as Ise Shrine, which enshrines Toyouke-no-Okami, the deity who governs food, clothing and shelter. There is a large river flowing next to it, and the contrast between the green and blue is very beautiful. There were also lots of children playing in the river! 🏞️ ୨୧ ‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥୨୧ Shop: Okage Yokocho Location: From Isuzugawa Station Access: 2 minutes walk from bus stop "Jingu Kaikan-mae" Opening hours: August to September, 9:30 to 18:00 Closed: None Parking: Yes (paid parking) ୨୧ ‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥‥∵‥୨୧ #Summer photo #Mie trip #Mie #Ise #Okage Yokocho #Ise Shrine #Summer trip #Summer vacation #River #Nature #100 travel styles

#Travelwithme There are many shops in Ise, but I always end up coming back to this place Sushikyu Every time I visit, new shops open in Oharaimachi Okage Yokocho There are also many shops suitable for eating while walking If you want to eat a hearty meal, I recommend the hand-kneaded sushi here The thick pickled fillets are the perfect match for sweet vinegared rice You might think, "It's big, can I finish it?" but once you start eating, it's so delicious that you'll eat it all up The quaint building is also attractive And the inside of the shop is spacious and there are many seats, so even if you are waiting in line, you will be called in surprisingly quickly You can use the QR code you receive at the reception It's convenient to see the current situation I've been to Ise many times, but I'm drawn to this restaurant because it's so relaxing overall. Eating around is fun, but you should try Ise's local cuisine, hand-kneaded sushi at least once. 📌Sushikyu Address: 20 Uji Nakanokiri-cho, Ise City, Mie Prefecture Business hours: 11:00-17:00 (varies depending on the season) LO 16:30 *11:00-15:00 (LO 14:30) on the last day of each month ⚠︎Please check the official website for the latest information before going out ꒰ঌ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈໒꒱ Thank you for reading to the end Like!

#Travelwithme When Akafuku's zenzai turns into ice, I feel like summer is coming. There are several places where you can eat Akafuku ice near Ise Shrine, but here are some recommendations. Okage Yokocho Dangoro Chaya Since COVID ended, Ise has really become more crowded. Akafuku is also really crowded. Dangoro Chaya is a little less crowded, so I recommend it. It's nice to be able to eat soba, rice balls, and beef skewers. Another difference from Akafuku is that there are more varieties of shaved ice than just Akafuku ice. Oharaimachi is a fun place to go for a snack. It's convenient when you don't want to eat a full meal at a restaurant... but you still want to eat rice. 📌Okage Yokocho Dangoro Chaya 〒514-8558 52 Nakanokiri-cho, Uji, Ise City, Mie Prefecture (inside Okage Yokocho) -𝙊𝙋𝙀𝙉- May 2024 Weekdays 10:00-17:30 (LO 17:00) Weekends 10:00-18:00 (LO 17:30) Varies depending on the season Open all year round ⚠︎Although it is a branch of Akafuku, you cannot eat "regular Akafuku" Please note that the cash registers are different for shaved ice, soba rice balls, and beef skewers (you can sit anywhere) Please check the latest information when you go out ꒰ঌ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈໒꒱ Thank you for reading to the end Like!

#Travelwithme "I went to Ise Grand Shrine and ate my way through Okage Yokocho!" You often hear this, don't you? Actually, the official name is "Jingu" without the "Ise" part. And Jingu is a collection of 125 shrines (Naiku/Geku, 14 branch shrines, 43 auxiliary shrines, 24 subordinate shrines, and 42 supervised shrines) The most sacred and central of these is Naiku/Kotaijingu (Oharaimachi & Okage Yokocho are also nearby and popular) The shrine enshrines Amaterasu Omikami, the ancestor of the imperial family Crossing the Uji Bridge, amidst the lush greenery, you will find a gravel-lined shrine As I walked along the approach, I was purified by the Isuzu River that came into view on my right. The clear, pure water made me feel like my heart was purified. Then, at the main shrine, I expressed my sincere gratitude for my daily life and for being able to visit here today. "Visit Ise at least once in your lifetime." Please visit at least once. 📌Koutaijingu (Naiku) 1 Ujidate-cho, Ise City, Mie Prefecture Visiting hours January, February, March, April, September 5:00AM-6:00PM May, June, July, August 5:00AM-7:00PM October, November, December 5:00AM-5:00PM ⚠︎You can check the parking lot congestion status in real time on the dedicated website "Raku-Raku Ise Moude" ⚠︎It depends on how much of the auxiliary shrine you visit, but I think it's best to plan for about an hour ⚠︎The gravel approach to the shrine and the stone steps...comfortable shoes are a must ✯The shrine's official website explains everything about the shrine in an easy-to-understand way and is highly recommended! ꒰ঌ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈໒꒱ Thank you for reading to the end Like!

"Delicious things are made of fat and sugar" I heard this phrase somewhere once, but it stuck with me so much that I can't forget it Croissants are the epitome of "sugar and fat" But I really wanted to try them! *ˊᵕˋ* The popular Coquelicot Rouge in Ise @coquelicotrouge_jp We arrived around 11:00 on a weekday, but the parking lot with about 10 cars was almost full. The shop was also popular, with everyone buying a fair amount. Basically, even if you look at the photos and think it looks good, you might end up saying "hmm" when you see it in person, but the croissants here are also really beautiful. Maybe because they have cream inside, it's satisfying, like eating cake. And surprisingly, there is a wide variety of regular breads and they are of high quality.ᐟ.ᐟ Everything looked delicious, so I bought not only croissants but also regular breads·͜·ᰔᩚ Cake-like croissants🥐 The price is like cake too lol I think you can expect it to be around 400-700 yen NYR Chocolat with mini croissants 680 yen Colorful croissants 450 yen and up Coffee 360 yen Plastic bag 10 yen Banh mi bean paste and butter 280 yen, etc. Normal bread is pretty normal I hope this helps someone ·͜· ꕤ︎︎ 📍COQUELICOT ROUGE Coquelicot Rouge 766, Nakajima, Kakimizo, Misono-cho, Ise-shi, Mie-ken 516-0803 OPEN 6:00-19:00 (closes when sold out) Open all year round ⚠︎・I'd like to stop by on my way back from visiting Ise Shrine, but honestly, it might be tough if you don't have a car ・I think you'll have to take a taxi from Ise-shi Station ・There's about 10 parking spaces ・There's a small space to eat outside the store (As of February 2024) ꒰ঌ┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈໒꒱ Thank you for reading to the end Like!

"Pilgrimage to Ise Shrine starts from Geku" The correct way is to visit Geku → Naiku It's about a 5km walk from Geku to Naiku, so it's best to go by bus or taxi 🙆♀️ (Sorry🙇♀️ Due to time constraints, we only stopped by Naiku this time 🥲) ----------------------------- 📍Ise Jingu Geku 🚌Iseshi Station 👟5-8 minute walk 📍Ise Jingu Naiku 🚃Iseshi Station or Ujiyamada Station 🚌Mie Kotsu Bus 15-20 minutes, both 440 yen The Naiku is about the same distance from Iseshi Station and Ujiyamada Station♩ 🚌You can also travel from the Geku to the Naiku by bus About 15 minutes, 440 yen ----------------------------- We were staying at a hotel near Kashikojima Station, so we took the direct Pearl Shuttle for a comfortable trip◎ Reservations required (telephone reservations must be made by 6:00 p.m. the day before) 🚌Kashikojima Station (or the official Spain Village website) Hotel) ⇄Ise Jingu Naiku 💰1000 yen 🕐About 1 hour ----------------------------- 📍Okage Yokocho The street right next to Ise Jingu Naiku Lots of eateries🍡 From sweet to salty🤤 Lots of restaurants serving the famous Ise udon♩ We had another specialty Hamayaki🍴 Oysters and sea urchin...along with beer🤤🍺 📍Sarutahiko Shrine Walking distance from Ise Jingu Recommended to visit both!

●Name Sarutahiko Shrine ●Access 2-1-10 Uji Urata, Ise City, Mie Prefecture 🚗Private parking available ●Points About 5 minutes by car from the Inner Shrine of Ise Jingu You can also walk there Personally, I would like to visit this place first When you want to start something or are lost, Sarutahiko Shrine is the god who will guide you in the right direction A shrine famous for the god of opening the way and the god of performing arts People are worshiping this shrine for the prosperity of their family business and road safety In addition, within the shrine, there is Sarume Shrine, famous as the god of performing arts, and it is said that entertainers sometimes visit #Domestic travel#Mie #Ise #Temples and shrines

●Name Toyouke Daijingu Geku (Ise Jingu Geku) ●Access 279 Toyokawa-cho, Ise City, Mie Prefecture 🚗Private parking available ●Points Ise Jingu is the "spiritual home of the Japanese people" and is said to be the place where people say "visit Ise at least once in your lifetime". In the past, it was difficult to get to Ise, but now the transportation is convenient and we are grateful for it.☺️ If you go to Ise Jingu, you probably go to the Naiku and have a snack at Okage Yokocho. Actually... The correct order to visit is Shimomiya → Sarutahiko Shrine → Naiku. The divine virtue of Shimomiya is the guardian deity of industry, including food, clothing, and shelter. In addition to the main shrine, there are four "seku" (secondary shrines) at Ise Jingu Geku. Please visit all of them before heading to the Naiku. #Domestic travel#Mie #Temples and shrines #Power spots

Isn't that wrong?" It's a great value for money Talking to strangers next to you and sharing drinks is the best part of traveling I definitely want everyone to visit This is a restaurant you should visit if you're visiting Ise Shrine for sightseeing #Domestic travel#Mie #Ise #Gourmet

After visiting the Geku and Naiku shrines of Ise Jingu, we recommend a food stroll around Oharaimachi and Okage Yokocho, located next to the Naiku shrine. There are a variety of carefully selected local gourmet restaurants and souvenir shops lined up here. We especially recommend Akafuku Honten, where you can enjoy freshly baked Akafuku with tea. 🍵 On days off, there are taiko drum performances, making it a fun town that feels like a festival! #trip2023 #visitingiseise

I've always wanted to visit Ise Shrine. As is custom, I started by visiting the Outer Shrine (Toyouke Daijingu). Toyouke Omikami is the god who provides food for Amaterasu Omikami at the Inner Shrine, and is also revered as the guardian deity of food, clothing, shelter, and industry. I went around each shrine in order, and some places were quite crowded with queues, so it's probably best to allow yourself plenty of time. #trip2023#pilgrimagetoise

Before visiting Ise Grand Shrine, I went to Futamiokitama Shrine, famous for its Meoto Iwa (married couple rocks). The shrine enshrines Sarutahiko-no-Okami as its deity, and is said to grant blessings for matchmaking, marital harmony, and road safety. The Meoto Iwa (married couple rocks) are two rocks close together, firmly bound together by a large rope, so it's no wonder they're called the Meoto Iwa (married couple rocks). #trip2023 #IseTrip

This time, we came to Ise Grand Shrine in Ise City, Mie Prefecture! Ise Grand Shrine is divided into two parts, Shimomiya and Naiku, which are not next to each other but are about 5km apart. The gods are different in each part, so it is said that it is common to visit Shimomiya first and then take a bus or taxi to visit Naiku. Shimomiya is about a 5-minute walk from Ise-shi Station. Just go straight down the approach to the shrine and you will arrive! Some of the buses that connect Shimomiya and Naiku are retro buses with a streetcar design. Although it is not in the photo, a recommended souvenir is Akafuku mochi. The sweetness of the bean paste and the chewy texture of the mochi are addictive and delicious! #tripmemory2022 #IseGrandShrine #IseJinguNaiku #IseTrip #Shrine #ShrineTour

If you go to the Inner Shrine of Ise Grand Shrine, we recommend eating locally caught seafood in Okage Yokocho and having tea at a Starbucks with a Japanese atmosphere. The grilled shellfish is grilled on the spot and served with a little soy sauce, and it has a rich flavor and a strong umami taste that is really delicious. It costs 250 yen per piece, but I think it would cost twice as much if you had it in Tokyo. #SupportTourism #TripToMie #Gourmet #GourmetTrip #CoupleTrip #Gourmet #IseGrandShrineInnerShrine #OkageYokochoGourmet
