Toyouke Daijingū

The Outer Shrine of Ise Grand Shrine follows Shinmei-zukuri architecture, featuring wooden structures with raised floors and thatched roofs in Toyokawachō.

The shrine maintains a perpetual cycle of reconstruction every twenty years since ancient times, ensuring the preservation of traditional building techniques.

Dedicated to Toyouke-Ōmikami, the deity of agriculture and food, this shrine receives offerings of rice and grains during seasonal ceremonies.

Visitors reach the shrine through a dedicated entrance called Daiichi-torii-guchi Sando, following specific paths that lead to the main worship areas.

The shrine employs specialized craftsmen who prepare daily food offerings for the deities using traditional methods and sacred fire rituals.
