I walked from the parking lot I parked to go to Ise Jingu to Okage Yokocho. There are many shops, many people, and it is lively and fun.

(Translated by Google) It is said that the president of Akafuku spent 14 billion yen to develop this place to liven up Ise. It is operated by Ise Fuku Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Akafuku Co., Ltd., which produces and sells the Ise specialty Akafuku Mochi. Located in the middle of Oharaimachi, it is a tourist destination that represents Ise-Shima. It's hard to imagine investing 14 billion materials to liven up the local area. There is also an atmosphere, and it is a place where you can immerse yourself in a calming nostalgic place where various shops are lined up. (Original) ここは赤福の社長が140億円をかけ、伊勢を盛り上げようと開発したとのこと。運営は伊勢名物赤福餅を生産・販売する株式会社赤福の子会社である株式会社伊勢福が行っています。 おはらい町の中ほどにあり、伊勢志摩を代表する観光地となっています。140億もの資材を投じ地元を盛り上げるのは、思いはしてもなかなかできません。雰囲気もあり、様々なお店が立ち並ぶ何処か心が落ち着くノスタルジックに浸れる場所です。

The Okage Yokocho is located about halfway down Oharaimachi Street and it recreates a historic and old town with townscape from the Edo Period to the Meiji Period. I loved this district and I ate some of the best street food here. Highly recommend going here and checking out the local stores for the delicious food and the unique crafts and souvenirs.

Nice place to walk around the whole day... Can try all kinds of food here n take lots of photos of the old buildings.. Try not to be there on the weekend... is very crowded n takes time to a just a picture without anyone Is a must to visit if anyone is around this area

Love this place, I think exploring this place was a much better or more authentic experience than ninenzaka in kyoto. The food trip was 10/10; the place was not that crowded; there was an amazing river next to it that you can enjoy in a cafe. You also must drop by the mythology place at the center of it all. It explains some good lores about japan.

(Translated by Google) After all, it was crowded with people. I went during the hot weather in July. It was before the summer vacation, but it was crowded with many people. The flow was also disjointed, and because my child was small, I couldn't move, bumped, or was swept away, so I was thrilled if I couldn't get lost. On this day, the asphalt was hot and I didn't have an appetite, and the smell of the food in various shops was mixed, so it wasn't the same as the food. There were a lot of delicious foods, but when it's cool, it's a revenge w I couldn't take a picture because my cell phone couldn't function due to the heat of the day. It is safe to have a separate camera. (Original) なんと言っても人だかりですごかったです。7月の暑い最中に行きました。夏休み前でしたが、沢山の人で賑わっていました。 流れもバラバラで、子供が小さいので身動きがとれなかったり、ぶつかったり、流されたりしましたので、はぐれたりしないかドキドキでした。 この日はアスファルトが熱く食欲も出ず、色々なお店の食べ物の匂いも混ざったりして、食べ物どことではなかったです。美味しいものも沢山ありましたが、涼しいときに、リベンジですねw 携帯もこの日の暑さで機能できず、写真がとれませんでした。カメラも別に用意していると安心ですね。

Such a cute and nice place to mesmerize and go through a old japan . Parking is available for ¥500 for 1 hour. Only cash . Toilet is available. Nice and tasty foods are available and souvenir shops are available.

I love this place! I have tons of good memories here. It’s a great place especially in spring time. It’s very close to an amazing spot of sakura trees.

This is a district you should stop by when you visit Ise Jingu. Whenever we come here, the first thing we do is to take a break at "akafuku" to eat Akafuku which is a chewy mochi sweets coated with anko, the sweet bean paste. You can enjoy it with green tea. There is also a delicious rice ball shop at the far end. We could have light lunch at a table outside, feeling the calm wind. We also found an unique tea shop that sells traditional tea leaves that have been grown in this area for a long time. The taste is mellow and the price is reasonable, and I would like to go back to buy more. I believe the most interesting place in Okage Yokocho is the "Mythical Hall" in the back. It's called "Shinwa noYakata" in Japanese. They have a course of scenes from Japanese mythology about how the country was created by gods with paper dolls and decorations, and the guide will take you on a mythological journey with explanations. There are some parts that are difficult to understand just from the explanations, so I recommend you to look it up before the visit. It is interesting to see how they are connected to the culture and customs of Ise Shrine.

It gets really crowded but little and cute corner for those who want to have a break. Food is expensive and not as good as you can find at the main street.

The parking areas are quite far, but still acceptable. Even in rainy days, you can still enjoy it! There are many food stalls, mostly something related to skewers. There are some public toilets but sadly no bidet.

Say no more: STREET FOOD! A super popular Local Tourist / Family Day Outing kind of area. It is popular among young families and you would mainly see locals there. As a foreigner who doesn't speak much japanese, some things may be a tad difficult to communicate. But nothing Google translate can't help. I recommend eating: - Fish Cake - Croquette - Matsusaka Beef Skewer - Zen zai (Red Bean soup with grilled mochi) - Mochi - Green tea - Onigiri There are even small carnival games, like shooting and fortune wheels. Many old school snacks are sold there too. I do not have photo of everything I ate there. But always a good place to chill by the river or soak in the atmosphere on a weekend. It is crowded but that's the fun in it. Look out for storytelling performances and taiko drum performance around. Fantastic! I throughly enjoyed my Sunday there. This place will then lead you to the shrine. That is the highlight! Overly, you do need to take a bus from the station to this place. If you are driving be prepared to queue to get into the carpark on a weekend. It was really crowded.

A town at the foot of Ise Jingu, prepare lots cash to pay for all the snacks. This area is about 3 bus stops from the train station, very convenient. We came from the Married Rocks, it was a simple bus journey. Would like to recommend the matsusaka beef skewers (900yen).

Great place to explore many kinds of food stores. Located near the Ise shrine. But they closed very early, you should check the schedule before coming. The souvenirs’ prices are quite high.

Love the vibes. Feels like go back in time. The buildings are beautiful 😻

Best Experience in Japan so Far What a lovely area full of tradition and culture with tons of food outlets, street food to restaurants. We loved the area walking all the way up to the beautiful park and trying lots of food on the way. The best spot is where the marker is on the map as we were lucky to watch a local band playing the flute and drums with other musical instruments. We were surprised to see no foreign tourists, better for us with deeper local experience. Easily accessible by train or bus. Recommendations Go and spend the whole day or 2 walking around exploring all of this area,try local foods Udon,oysters,shellfish and more Fully recommended #garystribe #localguides #letsguide #japantour #okageyokocho #japan

A very famous food street that I wanted to go and finally was able to. There were so many different shops it was so fun to look at each one of them. I loved eating around getting a little bit of food at different restaurants. I also really loved the stores which had vintage items or cutlery and pottery. They also had a stamp rally going on so my friend and I decided to enter it and this was a very good choice because it allowed us to motivate ourselves to actually complete the mission which made us walk a lot. Since the different stamps are scattered around the whole area we had to go from one side to another which was great exercise without even knowing we were exercising.

(Translated by Google) I went there for the first time in 2 years. I couldn't go there last year for some reason, but I go there every year after visiting Ise Jingu. It's a fun place no matter how many times you go 😆 It's a fun place to eat Akafuku Mochi, eat Ise udon, and peek at various shops. I got two cute cats at a store specializing in beckoning cats ✌️ There weren't many people even on Saturday, probably because of Corona. I was able to watch it slowly, but I feel a little lonely 😔 (Original) ２年ぶりに行きました。 去年は訳あって行けませんでしたが、毎年伊勢神宮参拝後行ってます。 何回行っても楽しい所です😆 赤福餅食べたり、伊勢うどん食べたり、色んな店覗いたりして楽しい場所です。 招き猫専門の店で可愛いの2匹ゲットしました✌️ コロナのせいか土曜日でもあまり人がいませんでした。その分ゆっくり観れましたが、ちょっと寂しい気がします😔

(Translated by Google) It's a busy street. Photo exhibition? I visited the building where I was doing. The historic building felt the depth of taste. (Original) にぎやかな通りです。写真展？をしている建物にお邪魔しました。歴史的建造物は味わい深さを感じました。

(Trip was made back then on 23 Nov 2019, 2 years before the Covid-19 Pandemic hit) Even though 2 years have passed, I still remember the amazing time spent in Okage Yokocho. There was so many things to see and do that you won’t have time to feel bored. Every bend and turn there was an interesting shop waiting to be discovered. Just can’t get enough of the atmosphere. Definitely one of our favourite sites to visit. Sadly, travelling to Japan is currently not allowed due to the Covid-19 pandemic…….otherwise I would definitely want to revisit once more.

Perfect place for food after visiting Ise Shrine! So much nice food and cute shops here!!

(Translated by Google) Most of the stores open after 10 am even though the Jingu is open earlier. Not recommended for people who use the A1 and 2 parking lots in the morning. (Original) 神宮がもっと早い時間から開いているのに開店が朝10時以降の店が殆ど。朝にA1・2駐車場使うような人にはおすすめできない。

After visiting Ise Jingu, i enjoyed so much my relax and shopping time in the old style streets of Okage Yokocho. So nice atmosphere, reminded me about Kawagoe in a way. All shops are ancient style, very nice atmosphere.

(Translated by Google) Local I can go anytime, so I can't come here If it's a side street, you can't remove the croquette of pork dumplings w (Original) もろ地元 いつでもいけるから中々こっち方面こないw 横丁なら豚捨のコロッケは外せないw

Amazing place to eat street food and enjoy an atmosphere of old Japan.

(Translated by Google) There are too many shops and I get lost. Let's search on Google Maps (^^) (Original) お店が多過ぎて迷っちゃう。Googleマップで検索しましょ(^^)

This is the wonderful place for a walking and window shopping. From the homepage A 5-minute walk from Ujibashi in Namiya-san. Okage Yokocho is located in the middle of Oharaimachi. The big night light at the entrance is a landmark. Okage Yokocho is a town with more than 50 shops. There are no fences around the area, so you can walk around freely. Seasonal events, the design and scenery of buildings along the Iseji route, carefully selected special products and Ise souvenirs, local cuisine, oral performances of picture-story shows, and performances of Shinon Taiko drums. There are many things that I would like you to take your time to look at, eat, buy, and enjoy. Please visit us many times and walk around without missing anything.

I could have spent an entire day on this street alone! I merely passed through on my way to the Ise Grand Shrine but would recommend giving yourself more time to enjoy the amazing food and shops on this street. Can’t wait to bring my husband next time I’m in Ise!

Nice old streets that lead to the shrine, filled with shops of different things: snacks, souvenirs, drinks. Not many places to eat in but some benches available. Really liked to see this part of town so alive, with so many people walking up and down the streets.

Great, plenty of options for any taste, both food and souvenirs. Be aware that the whole are is pretty much dead after 5:00 pm and if you overstay you may lose the bus back to the train station.

(Translated by Google) In a sense, the inbound has disappeared due to the corona wreck, and we are returning to the former quaint place. (Original) コロナ禍でインバウンドがいなくなってある意味、以前の趣きのある場所に戻ってます。

Great place to visit for a day trip. There Akafuku is a must try. Iron was great too.

I visited this place on the weekend, there were so many people there. I just love this kind of place, where you can see a traditional Japanese building and its atmosphere. There are so many shops too, you can buy a souvenir, japanese sweets, etc. There are so many restaurants too. If you come here, don’t forget to try matsusaka beef!

Vibrant street full of shops, restaurants and cafes, selling local wares and serving local delights. Extremely busy during public holidays, but worth wandering and exploring.

Moderately fun. These kind of shopping streets are all over Japan. While the food is usually overpriced and lacks variety, the real treat is Tsuitachi Mochi - available only on 1st day in May. It is exceedingly crowded and finding a parking spot is a challenge. As for Ise Shrine - it's an utter waste of time, and especially if you already been or are on the way to Kyoto/Nara. Mie people are quite xenophobic and rude. Visiting the shrine feels like being in North Korea at times. Much, much better and more enjoyable option (and much closer) is Tsubaki Grand Shrine near Kameyama. In short: this place has very little value unless you live in Japan. On limited schedule - avoid it. Personally, I won't be back.

Pretty extensive old street that is well maintained. It's also highly commercialised and there's a Starbucks there too. Great for shopping after visiting Ise Grand Shrine!

Great street full of shops and restaurants where to eat and drink. Loved the soya sauce shop ! Please try the Soya Sauce soft ice. The best ice I've had in Japan!

You can’t avoid this on the way to Ise Grand Shrine. As with other shopping streets that lined the path to shrines, you’ll find a consolidation of the region’s specialities here (including Akafuku, a popular Japanese dessert joint). There’s a Snoopy cafe with exclusive merch and a handful of character goods stores. If you go to the alley behind the shops, you can sit in the shade and watch the river. Nice in autumn. As with many such places, the priced are slightly marked up but it’s still reasonable. Parking is tricky but we managed to find a free one a short distance away (Isuzu Park)

Recommand to take bus here. Shops mostly open at 10am. There are also some side lanes.

(Translated by Google) Thanks to you, I enjoyed it. Akafuku and roasted chestnuts are delicious. (Original) おかげさまで楽しめました。 赤福、焼き栗が美味しかっです。

(Translated by Google) It was early in the morning, so there were few worshipers and it was quiet. Thanks to you, when I went to Yokocho, I bought a souvenir of Akafuku Mochi and got a zenzai. it was delicious! (Original) 朝早かったので参拝者が少なく静かでした。おかげ横丁に行くと赤福餅のお土産を買いおぜんざいをいただきました。美味しかったよ!

(Translated by Google) Due to the influence of Corona, the number of people seems to be quite small, but the shops are doing their best to open all! There are a few lines at popular taste stores. It seems that each store is taking measures against infection, so you can use it with confidence! I want you to become a lively side street as soon as possible without the influence of Corona (^ _-) (Original) コロナの影響で、人の数はかなり少ない感じですが、お店は頑張って全て開けていますね！人気の味の店舗では多少並んでます。各お店共に感染対策もしてようで、安心して利用出来るのではないでしょうか‼ 早くコロナの影響もなく、活気のある横丁になって欲しいですね(^_-)

The most beautiful little town I’ve ever been to in Japan. The quaint shops and street foods are really special. Feels like I’m taken back to old Japan.

Very authentic traditional Japanese street with lots to see, buy and eat. Remember to turn to the Meow Alley for more shops and surprises. East to spot with a cat statue right on the left side.

Great local shopping street near ise shrine. Will spend more time than what you think

Interesting walking street, with authentic Japanese Architecture and interesting merchandise, food, snacks sold by individual stalls. You can spend the entire afternoon roaming the streets! Best time to visit, Autumn!

a taste of the old streets of japan. i love this place, love the foods, isei udon is a must try

Not alot of people, but alot of delicious foods.

Thanks to Shimenawa, I bought a stuffed dog! (Original) 10年ほど前にも来たが、こんなに混んでたっけ？って思うくらい混雑してた。 おかげ横丁入ってすぐ左の藍染屋さん？でしめ縄付きおかげ犬のぬいぐるみを買いました！

(Translated by Google) I went there for the first time in 5 years, but there was a change in the store, whether or not it was due to the influence of Corona. (Original) 5年ぶりにいきましたが、コロナの影響でかどうか、お店が替わっているのがありました。
