Miyajima Island
Miyajima Island: Approximately 40 KM from Kure is the ferry station that will take you to Miyajima Isand. Miyajima is considered one of the 3 most beautiful sites of Japan, and is part of the Seto Inland Sea National Park. It is the site of a 50 ft tall Torii Gate set in the sea, the Itsukshima Shrine, which was constructed in 593 AD, and Daishoin Temple. Fall is a great time to visit because of the many beautiful Japanese maples. Watch out for the deer and the monkeys!
