Miyajima


Today we went to Miyajima, a small island just off Hiroshima. The entire island is heritage listed. It's famous for Temples, monks, slightly aggressive deer and highly aggressive monkeys. It also serves some of the mosts sensational oysters you'll ever want to eat. Perhaps it's most famous though for the O-Torii Gate, a bright orange temple gate built in the sea. You can walk to it at low tide, but it appears to be rising from the sea when the tide is in.
