We took the ferry from Hiroshima to Miyajima Island for a day trip. The ferry ride was only 10 min.
On arrival at Miyajima we followed the paths to the right, past a park where deers were wandering freely. The deers showed no fear of humans and came sniffing for food and followed us along the street.
Plenty of souvenir shops along the street as you walk towards the floating Shinto gate.
Miyajima has a very relaxed atmosphere with friendly shopkeepers and beautiful views across the water.
Walking past the gate and the shrine we continued up to the rope way station. An easy walk through trees and waterfalls on a wide path.
The cable car ride was great with views across the island. At the top station there are magnificent views in all directions.
We thoroughly enjoyed the day and recommend the trip! Plenty of places to eat or buy a snack and just enjoy the relaxed pace.
