Ise Province

The Ise Province extends across multiple districts including Kuwana, Inabe, and Suzuka, with natural boundaries formed by Ise Bay and mountain ranges.

During the Nara period, the province emerged from the division of the princely state of Ise into three distinct territories: Ise, Iga, and Shima.

The province contains two significant Shinto sanctuaries in Suzuka competing for the Ichinomiya title: Tsubaki Grand Shrine and Tsubaki Jinja.

The region maintains strong transportation connections through rail services and road networks, linking major cities across the eastern coast of the Kii Peninsula.

The Suzuka Circuit, established in 1962, hosts Formula 1 races and the Suzuka 8-hour Endurance Race, making it central to Japanese motorsports.
