Betsugu - Second Shrine

A title given to the main shrine, referring to shrines that have a very close and peripheral relationship with the main shrine. In the case of Ise Jingu, there are ten auxiliary shrines belonging to the Inner Shrine and four auxiliary shrines belonging to the Outer Shrine. In the case of Jingu, it refers to the shrines that are subordinate to the shrine and are given the title of Miya, and is used to distinguish them from the main shrine. In terms of the status of the shrine, it is the second most revered shrine after the main shrine.

Japanese:

本宮に対する称号で本宮ときわめてかかわり深い枝葉の関係にたつ神社。伊勢(いせ)神宮の場合、内宮(ないくう)所属の別宮は10社、外宮(げくう)所属の別宮が四社ある。神宮の場合は神宮所摂の社(やしろ)で宮号を称せられることをいい、本宮と区別するための称号。神宮の格式上、本宮に次いで崇敬される宮社である。
