Description

Take a ferry to Miyajima Island and explore its natural beauty and cultural heritage. Visit the iconic floating Torii gate, Itsukushima Shrine, and Daisho-in Temple with a guide.
Meet your guide at Hiroshima Station. Begin your journey with a 30-minute train ride, then a short ferry ride to the famous Miyajima Island, also known as Itsukushima Island. As you approach the island, catch beautiful views of the iconic floating Torii gate, which appears to be emerging from the ocean. This gate is one of the most recognizable symbols of Japan and a must-see attraction on any trip to Hiroshima.

Once you arrive on the island, be greeted by friendly deer and a bustling village with plenty of shops, restaurants, and other attractions. From here, stroll along the shoreline toward the breathtaking O-Torii gate, which appears to float on the water during high tide. If conditions allow, walk right up to it during low tide.

Next, visit the renowned Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, before heading to the impressive Daisho-in Temple complex. This temple is one of the most important in the region and is home to a variety of significant Buddhist artifacts and relics.

Finally, immerse yourself in the lively downtown area, where you can enjoy a variety of local street foods. One of the most popular specialties on Miyajima is Momiji manju. These sweet, maple leaf-shaped cakes are filled with flavors such as sweet red bean paste, custard, and chocolate, making them a perfect snack as you explore the island.
