travel to HIROSHIMA -2-






We stayed at MIYAJIMA, which is an small isalnd taking 10 minutes by ship from HIROSHIMA . ITSUKUSHIMA shrine in MIYAJIMA is resistered as a world heritage site.
The shrine has two intereseting faces, At high tide it looks as if it would float. And at low tide we can see the foundations, so we walk to the main gate. ( Can you see the people walking to the gate?)
You know how deep from the left photo.
We arrived there at dusk, so all lanterns were lighted. It was really beautiful, mysterious and solemn. At that time it was at low tide, so wewalked to the main gate and touched it.
In the morning, it was at high tide. It was really beautiful,clear and brilliant.
If you go to MIYAJIMA you should stay there and watch the two faces.
Well, these photos were taken by my younger daughter. During this travel she really enjoyed taking photos.
