President Obama and all leaders of the Group of Seven nations will visit the Ise Shrine prior to the kickoff of their meeting. The country’s most revered shrine, which over seven million worshipers visit every year, is known as the site where Amaterasu Omikami, the legendary ancestor of the Imperial Household, is enshrined. The shrine is the most suitable location for foreign leaders to touch “the spirit of Japan,” Mr. Abe has said.
