Ise Jingu Temple

Ise Jingu Temple is the main Shinto sanctuary located in the city of Ise.

The sanctuary consists of two main complexes. The first is Naiku, an inner sanctuary dedicated to the goddess Amateras, who is the progenitor of the imperial family.

The second sanctuary is called Geku, it was built a little later Naiku. The distance between them is about six kilometers, which form a path for pilgrims. The sanctuary is dedicated to the food goddess Toyouke.

Ise Jingu holds national treasures. For example, the Sacred Mirror, which is the imperial regalia.
