Kiyomori Camphor Tree

A camphor tree that stands along the road approaching Outer Ise Shrine. It is said the tree is over 900 years old. Legends states that when Taira no Kiyomori visited Outer Ise Shrine as an imperial envoy, a branch from the tree brushed against his ceremonial hat. An angry Kiyomori cut off the branch giving the tree its name. In present time the tree has forked into two trunks.
