Depart Hiroshima Station at 7:50, Sanyo Line “bound for Iwakuni”, arrive at Miyajima-guchi Station at 8:18 Depart JR Miyajima Ferry at 8:30, “bound for Miyajima Pier”, arrive at Miyajima Pier at 8:40, Total fare Yen 600 I left early in the morning, but Miyajima Ferry was quite crowded with junior high school and high school students on school trips. Miyajima is famous as one of the three most scenic spots of Japan. Matsushima in Miyagi and Amanohashidate in Kyoto are also the three most scenic spots of Japan. I went to Matsushima in September 2021 and Amanohashidate in October 2021. Therefore, by visiting Miyajima this time, I was able to go to all the three most scenic spots in Japan within a year. The statue of Kiyomori Taira is located just off Miyajima Pier. Itsukushima Shrine
