Discover Japan’s most sacred Shinto sites, admire the iconic Wedded Rocks rising from the sea, and wander through a beautifully preserved historic town filled with traditional charm.

    Meoto Iwa — The Wedded Rocks (30min)

    Begin your adventure at Meoto Iwa, two sacred rocks dramatically standing in the sea and connected by a shimenawa rope. Known as the “Wedded Rocks,” they symbolise the union of the Shinto deities Izanagi and Izanami and are a beloved symbol of harmony and marriage. Take a peaceful stroll along the shore and capture memorable photographs of this iconic Japanese landscape.

    Toyouke Daijingu — Ise Jingu’s Outer Shrine (40min)

Dedicated to Toyouke-Omikami, the deity associated with food, clothing, shelter, and the necessities of daily life, the shrine offers a serene introduction to the sacred world of Ise. Walk beneath towering trees and through tranquil shrine grounds while experiencing the timeless atmosphere of traditional Shinto worship.

    Ise Grand Shrine — Japan’s Sacred Heart (1h 30min)

    Next, visit the revered Ise Grand Shrine, one of Japan’s most important and sacred Shinto destinations. Surrounded by ancient forests, the shrine complex provides a rare opportunity to experience Japan’s spiritual traditions in an atmosphere of peace and reverence.

    Take your time to explore the grounds, appreciate the elegant traditional architecture, and immerse yourself in centuries-old Japanese culture.

    Okage Yokocho — Step Back in Time (1h 30min)

    Finish your Ise experience at Okage Yokocho, a charming historic district located near the shrine. Stroll along traditional streets lined with wooden buildings, local shops, cafés, and food stalls.

    With plenty of time to explore, this is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the flavours and traditions of Ise.
