The World Cultural Heritage course that you shouldn't miss in Hiroshima

Miyajima in Aki and the Atomic Bomb Dome, registered as world cultural heritage sites, are must-sees in Hiroshima. You can walk around or contemplate peace. It's a course during which you'll spend your time meaningfully.

The World Cultural Heritage course as a same-day or overnight trip

Take a cruise from Miyajima to Peace Memorial Park. You can enjoy a day trip, or stay overnight and visit Ikuchi and Innoshima Islands the following day.

Miyajima Fun Walks with Professional Guides!

Once aboard the ferry at Miyajima-guchi pier, a splendid view of the Seto Inland Sea unfolds. The large number of bamboo rafts on the water are oyster beds.
Itsukushima Shrine and the Ohtorii Gate can be seen on the right hand, or starboard, side of the ferry. The sight of the grand structures from the ferry always whets the appetites of visitors for the tour about to start on the island.
