Ise Jingu

Reviewed By soxfan1975 - Needham, United States

We visited this shrine while on a cruise ship excursion from Toba. It is not very far from the port, and definitely worth visiting. Our five-hour excursion from Toba included the Grand Shrine and Okage Yokocho shopping area at Ise, the Futami Okitama shrine, Meotoiwa, and Pearl Island at Toba. This is a very spiritually meaningful and interesting place.

Ise Shrine Geku

Reviewed By HotRodHeart - France, null

This shrine is the smaller one, situated not far from the town center. It is great to stroll around, and enjoy the atmosphere of greenery and mystery that floats around. You can end up in little trails in the forest, and really feel the nature around you. I visited this shrine before the bigger one the next day, and it's a good thing I did. It's like going to a different scale.

Missed my train for the sunrise... nevertheless the sky is amazing that day. It would have been a prefect day if I managed to capture the sunrise.. as my purpose was to capture that bright orange sun rising from above the sea. A popular location for sunrise
