Tokoyo no kuni

Location in Shinto mythology

Tokoyo (常世), also known as Kakuriyo (隠世、幽世), or Taikaikan is a realm in Shinto. It is an "otherworld" though not necessarily seen as a place in the afterlife, but rather as a mythical realm with many interpretations. It is believed to be a place where various kami and spirits of ancestors live with eternal youth. Motoori Norinaga categorized three types of Tokoyo: a world of perpetual darkness, a world where people never grew old, and a world across the sea.
