Mr. and Mrs. Akishino will be worshiping at Ise Jingu in Mie Prefecture in April in order to attend an event accompanying Mr. Akishino's "Rikkoshi no Rei", which had been postponed due to the spread of the infection.

According to the Imperial Household Agency, Mr. and Mrs. Akishino will visit Mie Prefecture from April 20th, and on the following day, 21st, they will visit Ise Jingu, which is dedicated to "Amaterasu Omikami," the ancestor of the imperial family. You will be informed that it is over.



Then, on the 22nd, we will visit the Mausoleum of Emperor Shinbu in Nara Prefecture and the Mausoleum of Emperor Meiji in Kyoto Prefecture in the same way, and will return to Tokyo on the 23rd.



It is the first time that the Akishino Miya and his wife have visited a rural area together after the spread of the new coronavirus infection, and the Imperial Household Agency will travel by car for most of the journey, and many people will not gather at the station or along the road. We will take thorough infection control measures, such as devising ways to prevent infection.



Mr. Akishino attended the "Rikkoshi no Rei" in November, but his visit to Ise Jingu and other places was postponed due to the spread of the infection.
