Ise

Kazahinomi-no-Miya Bridge is located near Ise Grand Shrine, one of the most sacred Shinto shrines in Japan. The whole area will put you at the very core of ancient tradition and history. Walking the approach to the shrine, listen to the background music of gravel crunching beneath your feet and birds chirping in the trees. The air seems to almost purify your mind away from the hustle and bustle of daily life. If you happen to visit while it's raining, notice the slicked shrine pavilions, which add a moodiness that is very atmospheric.

This photo was taken from the entrance of the Kazahinomi-no-miya Bridge near the Ise Grand Shrine. To get to Ise Jingu by train, go from JR Nagoya Station to Ujiyamada Station by using Kintetsu Limited Express. You can then take a cab or a bus to Naiku-mae, which is 8 minutes from the bridge. Once you're at Naiku-mae, cross Uji Bridge at the entrance to the shrine, go through the first torii gate, and follow the road to the second torii gate, where you will see a large building called Kaguraden Hall on your left. On your right, you will see a path leading to the Kazahinomi-no-Miya Bridge. Take that path and walk a little bit until you're in the middle.
