This shrine has been familiar to the Japanese people from old times, so it's been called Oise-san（by its nickname） . Crossing the elegant UjiBridge, you come into the garden attached to the shrine. Surrounded by 800 year old cryptomerias you can feel sublime atmosphere filling the garden. The main buildings of the Naiku are famous for its architectural style. This is the oldest style in Japan, and enshrines the Sun-Goddess （"Amaterasu-Ohmikami"in Japanese）.
