Early the next morning, I encountered a wonderful scene at Meoto Iwa.
The main purpose of this trip was to visit Ise Shrine,
I went early in the morning for the first time in my life.
The plan was to visit the Geku in the evening of the previous day and the Inner Shrine in the early morning.
I wanted to follow the "basic" rules of visiting Ise Jingu.
Although the order was changed slightly due to more rain than expected,
First, we arrived at the Naiku entrance on foot from the hotel at 5am.
Even though it was early in the morning, the main branch of Ise's specialty "Akafuku" was very popular.
A glimpse of people heading to worship early in the morning from Okage Yokocho.
This place is similar to ``Dreamland'' and there are many people during the day even in bad weather.
For those who want to visit the shrine in a leisurely manner, early morning is definitely recommended.
At my home, it often rains or storms wherever we travel.
It is said that it is good luck when it rains at Ise Grand Shrine.
I visited the shrine once in the past during an unbelievable downpour.
People who come from long distances to visit the shrine no matter what the weather is,
Amaterasu Omikami will be happy to welcome you.
Many people may tend to expect "benefits", but
This is not a place for personal gain, but a place to express gratitude and appreciation.
Until today, I have had no major illnesses or injuries.
I am grateful that I was able to visit the shrine safely again.
But next to the main shrine is "Ara Matsuri Shrine", so
I made sure to make a wish there (lol)
