Japanese people visit a shrine every January in order to make traditional New Year's wishes for health and happiness. This is called Hatsumode, the first visit to a shrine. So I visited Ise Jingu which is a Shinto shrine too.
I wish Japan to be Land of Hope and Safety, Mother of the Accidents Free!
After the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident, I continue to try to find the consequence of the accident against creatures in Tokyo and surrounding prefectures. At the moment, I find no biologocal impacts against Tokyo and neighbor prefectures.

Ise Jingu (Naiku)
Jingu is often introduced in the dictionary as "Ise Jingu." However, the official name is "Jingu" without "Ise." Jingu is principally composed of the Naiku where Amaterasu Omikami, the ancestral kami of the Imperial Family, is worshiped, and Geku where Toyouke Omikami, the kami of agriculture and industry, is worshiped.
Naiku is the alternative name for Kotaijingu, the sanctuary that is located in the southern part of Ise city, Mie, and was founded about 2000 years ago.
Geku is the alternative name for Toyoukedaijingu. This sanctuary is located in the center of Ise city, Mie, and was founded about 1500 years ago.
In the area around Jingu, 125 subsidiary shinto sanctuaries are distributed. 91 of them are connected with the Naiku and 32 with the Geku.
Jingu is described in the oldest Japanese books "Kojiki" and "Nihonshoki", edited about 1300 years ago.
Many generations of our ancestors have worshiped at the Jingu, which exists now just as it was at its beginning.
