in Miyajima

My husband and I went to Miyajima island in Hiroshima by train and ferry boat. There is a famous shrine "Itsukushima Shinto Shrine". The shrine is registered as a World Heritage Site. When we reached the island, it was almost high tide. So we could walk under the shrine gate. There were really many people, almost all of the people were absorbed in taking pictures. The gate was really bigger than I had imagined. Itsukushima Shinto Shrine was really beautiful, so I was moved by it. We enjoyed walking for a while. We had lunch at retro Japanese style cafe. It was cozy, so I liked the cafe. Then we went to Misen mountain by rope way, but we descended the mountain on foot. We walked and walked, but we sometimes enjoyed watching beautiful scenery. Then we visited at Itsukushima Shinto Shrine, and we enjoyed watching beautiful scenery again. The closed gate time was 6:30p.m, so we had to go out from the shrine before the flood tide. So we sat down on the bank of the river near the shrine and we waited until it was flood tide.There were many people who were sitting down on the bank, too. After sunset, the shrine was lit-up. It was really gorgeous, so we enjoyed watching it to our heart's content.
