Itsukushima Shrine Torii

Itsukushima Shrine

  • 30m
  • Admission ticket included
One of UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites with a history of over 1,400 years. Known for its elegant vermilion buildings constructed over the water, the shrine appears to float gracefully on the sea at high tide.

Daishoin Temple

The guide’s personal favourite. With beautiful wooden halls and charming, uniquely expressive statues, this hidden gem often exceeds visitors’ expectations. Many guests leave with a smile, saying it was one of their favourite stops.

Miyajima Omotesando Shopping Street

A lively street lined with local crafts, snacks, restaurants, and souvenir shops. You can also try Hiroshima’s famous maple-leaf-shaped cakes, called momiji manju. Please note that the strolling time may vary depending on how much time you have left on the island.

Atomic Bomb Dome

A stone monument marking the hypocenter — the exact spot directly beneath the point where the atomic bomb exploded in the air.

Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park
