It is most famous as the home of Ise Jingu, Japan's most sacred Shinto shrine, a vast complex of over 125 shrines where the sun goddess Amaterasu is enshrined. This spiritual heart draws millions of pilgrims and visitors annually. Beyond its sacred sites, Mie offers stunning coastal scenery along the Kumano Kodo pilgrimage routes and the dramatic rock formations of the Ise-Shima region, including the iconic married rocks, Meoto Iwa. The prefecture is a paradise for food lovers, renowned for its succulent Ise lobsters, Matsusaka beef (rivaling Kobe and Wagyu), and fresh seafood from Toba's pearl farming waters. From the historic ninja traditions of Iga-Ueno to the relaxing onsen (hot springs) of Nabana no Sato, Mie provides a deeply authentic and multifaceted Japanese experience, blending profound culture with breathtaking natural beauty.","Left","Type A, B; 100V, 50/60Hz",[19,22,25,27],{"key":20,"value":21},"Police","110",{"key":23,"value":24},"Ambulance","119",{"key":26,"value":24},"Fire",{"key":28,"value":29},"Tourist Police","",[31,34,37,40,43],{"key":32,"value":33},"What is the must-see attraction in Mie?","Ise Jingu (Ise Grand Shrine) is the most important and must-see site, representing the spiritual heart of Japan.",{"key":35,"value":36},"How do I get to Mie from major cities?","From Nagoya, take the Kintetsu Limited Express to Ise (approx. 80 mins).
