[Hiroshima Tourism] The symbol of Itsukushima Shrine, the "Otorii" gate ⛩️

Itsukushima Shrine in Miyajima, Hiroshima Prefecture, is famous for its large torii gate that stands on the sea! This large torii gate is one of the most magnificent shrines in Japan, and at high tide, the torii gate appears to float on the water, and at low tide, you can walk up to it, creating a unique sight. This World Heritage shrine dates back to the Heian period, and is a tourist spot surrounded by a sacred atmosphere. Highlights 1. The magnificent view of the large torii gate floating on the sea🏞️ The large torii gate stands directly in the sea, and at high tide, you can enjoy the magnificent view of the torii gate floating on the water. Its appearance is truly sacred, and the contrast between the blue sea during the day and the vermilion of the torii gate is beautiful, and at dusk, the atmosphere becomes even more fantastic✨ 2. Two views that can be enjoyed with the tides🌊 At high tide, you can enjoy the large torii gate floating on the water, and at low tide, you can walk up to it. The shells and seaweed you can see at your feet are also mysterious, and you can experience a part of history that you can touch directly. If you visit after checking the tide changes, you can spend a more fulfilling time. 3. Mysterious atmosphere with nighttime illumination✨ At night, the large torii gates and shrines are lit up, creating a mysterious atmosphere different from the daytime. Along with the light reflected on the sea, a solemn landscape emerges, and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery in silence. The large torii gates of Itsukushima Shrine are a tourist spot where Japanese history and nature are in perfect harmony. Depending on the season and time of day you visit, you can enjoy various expressions, so please visit it once! ! Thank you for reading to the end. If you have been there!
