Miyajima Revisited: What’s Changed? | Floating Torii Gate | Itsukushima Shrine & More [Eng CC]

Miyajima, home to Japan’s iconic floating torii gate, is a must-visit destination near Hiroshima. After 12 years, I finally returned to see what has changed. From the Hiroshima World Heritage River Cruise to the Itsukushima Shrine, delicious oyster feasts, and scenic temples, join me on this nostalgic journey to rediscover Miyajima!

🚢 Getting There: Took the Stella water taxi from Hiroshima, a faster and more scenic alternative to the train and ferry.
⛩ Floating Torii Gate: A UNESCO World Heritage Site, beautifully restored and stunning at high tide.
🦪 Local Eats: Sampled fresh Hiroshima oysters in one of the island’s upscale yet affordable restaurants.
🏯 Historical Landmarks: Explored the five-story pagoda, Senjokaku Pavilion, and more.
☕ Sweet Ending: Giant affogato before heading back!
