A must visit. Highlight of our 12 day trip to Japan. Dinner Options are scarce after dark. Bring food, beer & wine to catch sunset and the tide roll in. Check tide charts online for timing.

Believed to be the boundary between the spirit and human worlds, the Otorii's vermilion color is said to keep evil spirits away. You can walk to it on the sand bar during low tide.

Worth visiting with amazing history behind. Retaining the purity of the shrine is so important that no deaths or births have been permitted near it. Highly recommended. Approx half day trip

広島では有数の観光地の一つ。旧社格は官幣中社で、現在は神社本庁の別表神社。全国に約500社ある厳島神社の総本社。祭神は宗像三女神の市杵島姫命・田心姫命・湍津姫命。伝承によれば推古天皇元年 (593年) 佐伯鞍職が社殿の造営の神託を受け、勅許を得て御笠浜に社殿を創建したことに始まると伝える。厳島 (宮島) の北東部、弥山の北麓に鎮座する。
