The water gate

After a walk round the Hiroshima Peace Park during which we had 3 seasons in 45 mins, we headed back to the station to catch the train and ferry out to Miyajima.

Miyajima was a sight to see. The fat furry deer with white heart bottoms, the wide variety of the same souvenirs in shop after shop, very yummy grilled oysters on a stick and of course the various shrines, temples and of course the gate. It was just after low tide when we went out this afternoon and we have made plans to go back early tomorrow morning to see the gate “floating” at high tide.
