Ise
Ise a beautiful city where the most sacred Japanese Shinto shrine is located. I went there in December to meet my friend. Place is very beautiful and I`m happy that I had the opportunity to visit it.
First we went to the seashore to see the Meoto Iwa. I saw some pictures of it and I really wanted to go there. It looked wonderful.
After that we came back to the city center. Ise Shrine consists of two: Geku (Outer) and Naiku (Inner) Shrine. We visited the Naiku Grand Shrine. Not much is allowed to be seen, however it`s impressing. It looks completely different than other Shinto shrines I`ve seen so far.
For lunch we had Ise udon which is typical dish for Ise. It was very delicious.
We spent very pleasant afternoon and after that I went back to Kyoto. I think Ise is a pleace worth to be seen.
