Drive to the Inner Shrine and Pay Respects at the Sacred Grounds Along the Isuzu River

About this spot

Located about 20-25 minutes by car from Futami-ura, this is one of Japan's most formally revered shrines. Upon crossing Uji Bridge into the sacred grounds, you'll encounter the pristine Isuzu River and towering groves of cedar trees that transport you away from the summer heat of the city. At the Isuzu River Ablution Basin (五十鈴川御手洗場), you can even touch the river's water—an experience children will treasure. Walking along the solemn pilgrimage path before swimming adds a special rhythm to your day.

Tips

The parking lot in front of Naiku's Uji Bridge becomes crowded during peak seasons, so consider parking at a nearby lot and walking or using the shuttle bus. The grounds feature many paths covered with small gravel, so baby carriers may be more practical than strollers.

Best time to visit

Approximately 1 hour required. The late morning time slot offers relatively easier access for worship.
