Okage Yokocho
End your tour at Okage Yokocho, a lively district located right in front of Naiku. This area recreates the charming townscape of the Edo and Meiji periods. It is the perfect place to explore local food culture—don't miss trying "Ise Udon" (soft noodles in a rich sauce) or "Akafuji" (sweet bean paste over mochi), and browse for traditional Japanese crafts and souvenirs.
