Let’s take a tram with a history of over 100 years to Itsukushima Shrine, a World Heritage Site on Miyajima Island! Only takes 40 minutes from the Hotel Sunroute Hiroshima!

A World Heritage Site on Miyajima Island that you must see on your trip to Japan

Itsukushima Shrine is situated on Miyajima Island, Hiroshima. The shrine and its red torii (gate) is one of the must-see UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Japan. The stunning view during high tide when the shrine and gate appear as if floating on the sea will definitely be instagrammable.

In addition, wild deer, who are regarded as messengers of the Gods, will soothe you when you encounter them on the island.

Enjoy eating local specialties such as oysters and Momiji Manju

Not only viewing the beautiful scenery but also eating local specialties adds to the attraction of Miyajima Island. Oysters are farm-raised in the Hiroshima Bay, right in front of the island, and Hiroshima is the top oyster-producing city in Japan; so you can always have fresh oysters here. Let’s enjoy walking around the island while savoring freshly-grilled oysters and freshly-steamed Momoji Manju (maple leaf shaped confection) that you can purchase on the shopping street!

Don’t miss trying Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki!

You must try a Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki when you are in Hiroshima! Please have one at Okonomi-mura, a building with more than 20 famous stalls, or at Okonomiyaki shops around the city!
