A Spring Trip to Ise-Shima ⛩️🍵 Pilgrimage to Japan’s Most Sacred Shrine, Ise Jingu 🇯🇵 Travel VLOG 📸

In late April, I went on a 3-day trip to Ise-Shima, home to Japan’s most sacred Shinto shrine, Ise Jingu (Ise Grand Shrine). With a history of over 2,000 years, it’s a place many Japanese people dream of visiting at least once in their lifetime.

Join me as I make a pilgrimage to the Ise Grand Shrine, wander through a traditional shopping street, enjoy tasty local food, and take in breathtaking views from a scenic mountaintop spot. Just 1.5 hours from Nagoya or 2 hours from Kyoto, it’s also an easy day trip from these major cities!
