No tickets! What are Japan's pilgrimage sites like?

The "Divine Ceiling" You Must Visit When You Come to Mie Prefecture - Ise Jingu Shrine! The goddess Amaterasu, the center of Japanese mythology, is enshrined here. She is the top shrine in the world that even the emperor has to visit in person. 🌞 The shrine is divided into two palaces, the inner and outer palaces, surrounded by thousand-year-old trees. The moment you step in, you feel as if you are isolated from the hustle and bustle of the world by a barrier. The most amazing thing is that it "moves" every 20 years (Shikinen Qiangu), and even the buildings are "reincarnated"! 🕘 【Opening hours】 ▫️Neigong: 5:00-17:00 (seasonal adjustment, closing earlier in autumn and winter) ▫️Outer Palace: 5:00-18:00 ✨ TIPS: It is recommended to visit the temple in the early morning! The Torii gate in the mist has a more mysterious atmosphere. Please allow 3-4 hours for the photo. Wear light kimono or plain clothes for better photos! 💴【Ticket Price】 💰Ise Shrine is open to the public free of charge, but you can voluntarily donate incense money when you visit. It is generally recommended to donate 500 yen～ ⛺ 【Amusement Activities】 1️⃣ Inner and Outer Palace Worship Route: Outer Palace ➡️Take the shuttle bus ➡️Inner Palace (the order cannot be reversed! The ancients believed that this was the path to "welcome the gods") 2️⃣ Isuzu River Purification: Wash your hands and rinse your mouth in the clear stream at the entrance of the inner palace, purifying your body and mind instantly💧 3️⃣ Eat all the traditional flavors at Mikage Yokocho: After visiting the shrine, head to the shopping street next door!
