A Summer in Mie | Exploring Japan's Underrated Ise-Shima, Pearl Island & Ama Huts
Hi everyone! This week we're exploring Mie in Prefecture, Japan, a hidden gem just 2 hours from Kyoto. In this video I visit Ise Jingu, Japan's most sacred shrine, wander the historic streets of Oharaimachi, try Ise udon, and explore Futamino-Ura's famous Wedded Rocks.
In Toba, I learn about Japan's pearl industry at the Mikimoto Pearl Museum, watch a traditional ama diver demonstration, and stay at a ryokan with a private hinoki bath. The trip ends with an unforgettable ama hut lunch experience and a boat cruise through Ago Bay.
If you're planning a Japan trip beyond Tokyo and Kyoto, Mie Prefecture is an underrated destination with incredible culture, seafood, and coastline!
