Itsukushima Shrine, with its famous torii gate standing in the sea, was built at the end of the 6th century in the elegant shinden-zukuri style, and was registered as a World Heritage site in 1996, and remains a popular tourist attraction. The Otorii (Grand Gate) stands 200 meters from the shore and is made of a large camphor tree. It is also said that the reason why the torii was built in the sea is because the entire Miyajima Island was worshipped as an island of God, and therefore, it was constructed in the sea instead of on land. It is also famous for its tendency to give out bad luck in fortune-telling.

Hours of visitation 6:30-17:00 / 17:30 / 18:00 / 18:30

Since ancient times, sea eel has been caught in large quantities around Miyajima and the area was famous as a sea eel production area. Therefore, the 10th generation of the Ueno family started "Anago-meshi ". Since then, 100 years after its establishment, the restaurant still welcomes customers in its beautiful interior and is crowded every day during lunch time. The sweet and spicy sauce favored by the Japanese is a perfect match for the plump conger eel, and since you can walk to the restaurant from JR Miyajima-guchi Station, you can stop by during sightseeing, but as mentioned above, the restaurant is quite crowded during lunch time, so it is best to stagger your visit from lunch time to avoid stress. You can enjoy the best sea eel.

Built in 1407, this tower has a long history and is designated as a national important cultural property. The bright vermilion color of the tower is distinctive, and on a clear day, it makes for a beautiful photo against the blue sky. Although it is not possible to go inside and explore the building, just looking at it from the outside is a powerful experience, and the structure evokes the history of the battle. It was built some distance away from the main hall of Itsukushima Shrine and was used as a place to keep reserve soldiers on standby in case of war. You can take a free shuttle bus to get there, and the accesories are excellent.

Hours: Basically the same as Itsukushima Shrine: 6:30 - 17:00 / 17:30 / 18:00 / 18:30

The pier is served by ferries that connect Miyajima to the mainland. From the mainland, it takes about 10 minutes to reach Miyajima, where you can interact with friendly deer. You cannot feed the deer as you can in Nara, Kyoto, but it fits the sacred atmosphere of Miyajima just fine. Of course, you can take pictures, and since they are not relentless in asking you to feed them, it is a good idea to drop by before sightseeing.

Hours of Operation: According to ferry service hours: 6:30 - 17:00 / 17:30 / 18:00 / 18:30

It is recommended if you want to spend a relaxing time with your family or partner. Even if you do not have camping equipment, you can use cottage-style kevins. Of course, you can also camp using tents. One of the features of Miyajima Baogaura Nature Park is that you can enjoy seafood even though it is a campground. Usually, only mountain foods are available, but since it is near the sea, you can eat fresh oysters.
