‼️This island holds a place as one of the 3 Great Views of Japan, a title few places ever receive. This is how to visit 👇 Most people know the red torii in the water. Very few actually get here. 📍Itsukushima Shrine, Miyajima Island 🚤 HOW TO GET THERE From Hiroshima, take the JR train to Miyajimaguchi Station, then the ferry to Miyajima.The ferry ride is about 10 minutes. Cost around $3–4 USD one way ⏰ HOW LONG TO STAY If you’re day tripping, plan 6-8 hours minimum. I highly recommend staying
