Miyajimaguchi, the gateway for ferries to Miyajima, is an area full of vitality and expectation. Recently, the station area and passenger terminal have been extensively renovated, giving birth to sophisticated commercial facilities like "etTO." You can enjoy selecting Hiroshima specialties and souvenirs, or savoring gourmet food using local ingredients before or after your boat trip. In particular, the famous "Anagomeshi" (conger eel rice) shops, which have continued since the Meiji era, are a must-try in Hiroshima. With cafes overlooking the sea and shops blending tradition with modern style, it has evolved into a spot where you can have a wonderful experience as part of your journey, rather than just a transit point.

Itsukushima Shrine

Itsukushima Shrine, standing on Miyajima, is a uniquely creative shrine built over the sea and is registered as a World Heritage site.

Its most famous feature is the massive Grand Torii Gate standing in the sea; at low tide, you can walk out to it, and at high tide, you...
