Naiku
Our last day on our pilgrimage. We walked from the hotel to an important Shinto Shrine in Ise. The architecture was very understated next to other temples we have visited. Also--temples here are torn down every 20 years and re-built, with minute attention to detail. Beautiful old trees are held together by metal strip "bandaids" within the temple grounds.We part ways at a market area adjacent to the temples. I take a train to Kyoto.
