Ise-Shima
National Park is on the Shima Peninsula in Central
Honshû. The main attractions are located in and between the
cities of Ise and Toba. Ise is famous for its
Shintô shrine Ise-daijingû and
Toba for the
Mikimoto cultured-pearl industry. Between
Ise and Toba is Futamiga-ura beach
with two
rocks called me-oto-iwa
"wedded rocks", which a legend says sheltered
the creators of Japan, Izanagi and Izanami.
