Itsukushima Shrine

The famous shrine built on stilts with its torii gate set in the sea.

Reviewed By Sparkie09 - Goa, India

Was such an experience visiting this shrine in Miyajima...walking through the path and an old gate and the sight of the floating Tori gate in the sea and the temple itself on stilts...to beat the high tides.

Mt. Misen

Reviewed By DoctorDerm1 - Winter Springs, United States

The gondola is still not working (should be back working tomorrow), so we walked up. The posted sign said 90 minutes, but this 62 year old in good shape make it in one hour. The hike is 98% stairs, so no strollers! Bring water if you hike, though you can buy drinks at a machine by the buildings just below the top. The Lookout on top does close at 4pm, so make sure to arrive earlier since you will miss the best views if you can’t go up the Lookout.

Miyajima

Scenic site that includes the Itsukushima Shrine, Otorii Gate and visit to Mt. Misen.

Reviewed By iluv2eatntravel - San Diego, United States

It is nearly impossible to humanly describe the magnitude of what fascinating Miyajima island can offer - one has to experience it first hand. Definitely should be at the top of the list of any visit to Hiroshima. Please plan ahead as you would need a minimum of at least half a day as it should be enjoyed in a unhurried manner. It just seems that time slowed down on the island. If you can, go early and stay late. The island itself is amazingly explorable. Wear comfortable walking or hiking shoes. The buildings, especially the Itsukushima Shine with its gigantic ‘floating’ torii gate and nearby temples and pagodas have beautiful architectures that blends into the natural surroundings of sea, lush forests, and the misty Mount Misen. Wild and friendly deers roam its street freely. The residents of Miyajima were super friendly. Miyajima’s quaint town is filled with rustic buildings of shops and restaurants. Seafood served in the restaurants were delicious especially the grilled oysters freshly harvested in local waters. There are also some very scenic (potentially challenging) hiking trails up Mt Misen. If time is of the essence, and you are not able to hike the entire elevation of Mt Misen, take the ropeway up to near the top and then hike the rest of the way to the summit for some spell binding views at 1755 feet.

Itsukushima Shrine Torii

Reviewed By danielncf0717 - Taipei, Taiwan

What pops into people's mind when one thinks of the country Japan? Mt Fuji, Hot Spring, Kimono, the list goes on and on, and I bet a lot of people will think of Japanese Torii Gates, the beautiful architectures commonly found at the entrance of or within a Shinto shrine. If you like Torii and you are planning to go to Hiroshima, don't ever miss this magnificent Torii in the sea! On the island Miyajima, there is this famous Itsukushima Shrine with an enormous Torii in the sea, and if you stay long enough and time it right, you can approach it when the tide goes out. It's currently under renovation though

Momijidani Park

Reviewed By ccfchew_23 - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Located in miyajima island, this is a lovely trek where you can enjoy after seeing the shrine (which is under renovation). The area is hilly but is reasonable quiet and quaint. This is part of the trail if you decide to go up the ropeway (if you choose to walk and not taking the bus). Once you are done with the hill, you can use the small paths to go back to the main part of the island, gives you quite a nice feel of the island as it is a small neighborhood.

Miyajima Ropeway

Reviewed By travellinghthrulife - Yeppoon, Australia

If visiting Miyajima Island when in Hiroshima, the ropeway is a must do! We found it on a brochure in the arrival dock of Miyajima and it was well worth it. There is a short walk to a shuttle bus that will take you to the ropeway station, but the walk to the ropeway station is not bad. Provided it's a clear day, the views are beautiful from ropeway and the viewing platforms. The ropeway is in two parts or there is a mountain hike trail available. We got a round trip ticket for the ropeway and the gorgeous views from all sides at the top were well worth it.

Fantastic little street with plenty of little shops and restaurants. Bear in mind you'll definitely leave some money in that little street, try Okonomiyaki in any of the restaurant as well as oysters in any small stand.

Miyajima Sambashimae Park

Reviewed By E9706FNpaulo - County Monaghan, Ireland

I knew before coming that the Toori gate was under renovation but still made the trip and glad I did. The island itself is a fun place to spend a half day or so. There are shrines, Mount Misen and loads of stalls to eat and bit souvenirs. The Boat trip across is short and getting to and from Hiroshima is easy on the train
