On my day trip around Hiroshima I took the tram to the Atomic Bomb Dome and then a ferry to the Miyajima Island. The actual name of the island is Itsukushima, but people call it Miyajima which means “Shrine Island”.
The Atomic Bomb Dome is the only building that stood after the atomic bombings attack. It has since become known as the Hiroshima Peace Memorial.
Miyajima Island
On the island, there is a soft piano song playing on the speakers when you arrive.
It is quite magical. And the entire island is inhabited by deers.
Green tea ice cream.
I went back to the station. Picked up my backpack from the station lockers and took a train to Kyoto. After I arrived to my Ryokan, my home for the next couple of days, I went to get some dinner at a local ramen bar and started preparing for the following day.
