One of my favorite days was spent on Miyajima Island. It’s less than an hour outside the city of Hiroshima. It is most famous for its giant tori gate, which at high tide seems to float on the water. The sight is ranked as one of Japan's three best views.
The island has a mix of nice experiences. It has a sweet little town, a few pretty temples and Shinto Shrines and walking paths up its hillsides. I think maybe I liked it so much because after a few days of rain, the sun came out and everything looked so bright
My group also chose Miyajima to do the almost required Japanese dress up in a kimono and participate in a tea ceremony activity.
One of the island’s charms are the wild deer that wander the streets and mix with people. The first site of them feels so cute and exciting, but very quickly you notice they are everywhere!
