What is Ise Shrine Naiku?
The deity of Ise Shrine Naiku is Amaterasu Omikami, the ancestral god. He is also said to be the founder of the Japanese imperial family. I will quote the explanation signboard written in Japanese in the photo in English.
Amaterasu Omikami is the ancestral god of the imperial family, and is deeply revered by successive emperors, and is also our general god. He left the Imperial Palace in the reign of Emperor Sujin about 2000 years ago, and after traveling around the country, he settled down on the banks of the Isuzu River.
You can see the history of Ise Shrine. Ise Shrine is also the hometown of the Japanese mind.
