About Mie Prefecture


Mie Prefecture, within the Kansai region on Japan's main island of Honshu, has vast protected areas and some 1,000 kilometers of Pacific coastline. In its city of Ise is one of Japan's holiest sites: the Ise Grand Shrine, a Shinto complex inside Ise-Shima National Park. The park encompasses the Shima Peninsula, including Meoto Iwa (Wedded Rocks), a pair of sacred sea rocks linked by ceremonial rope.
