Itsukushima Shrine on Miyajima Island, one of Japan’s three most scenic spots and a World Heritage Site, offers a fantastical view of its vermilion-lacquered torii gate and shrine buildings floating on the sea, changing expression with the ebb and flow of the tide. Accessible only by boat, the island evokes a sense of wonder, as if you have stepped into another world. Its beauty, in harmony with nature, captivates all who visit.
