The perfect day trip from Hiroshima to Miyajima Island!
Steeped in history and surrounded by the natural beauty of Hiroshima Bay 広島湾, it's not wonder #miyajima island 宮島 is considered one of Japan's most iconic and sacred destinations. From the grand Itsukushima Shrine 厳島神社 and torii gate that floats just above the water to the adorable population of shiku deer (similar to those found in Nara, Japan) to its beautifully preserved ancient temples and shrines, many consider this Japanese island getaway the Kyoto of west Japan (without the crowds!).
Wondering how to get to Miyajima from Hiroshima? Join us as we take the scenic route, from Hiroshima's classic street car (or hiroden) to the Miyajimaguchi Station ferry. In our experience, this #hiroshimatravel day trip is one of the best and easiest in all of Japan.
Plus, all the Hiroshima oysters and setouchi lemons you can eat! Find out why Miyajima Street Food is a must when visiting this magical island. #宮島
