n this video I will take to the Island of Miyajima one of the world heritage sites in Hiroshima.
Miyajima
Just a short ferry ride from mainland Hiroshima is the island of Miyajima, famous the world over as Japan’s Shrine Island. Covering an area of 30 square kilometers in Hiroshima Bay, Miyajima is best known as the home of the Itsukushima Shrine, a Shinto temple dedicated to the Princess daughters of the wind god Susanoo.
Dating from the eighth century, the majority of the shrine’s buildings rise out of the waters of a small bay supported only by piles. The effect at high tide is simply stunning, making these structures – including the famous Great Floating Gate..
And if you guys are hungry, we will also try the specialty dish in Hiroshima, the famous OKONOMIYAKI.
The Hiroshima style Okonomiyaki recipe typically has ingredients of batter, cabbage, pork, and optional items such as squid, octopus, and cheese. Locals usually put toppings like yakisoba or udon with a fried egg and okonomiyaki sauce.
Due to food conditions after the war, locals change the green onions, which are seasonal, to cabbage, which is cheap and easy to obtain throughout the year. In the 30s of the Showa era, the start of the introduction of soba (Chinese noodles) and udon noodles. The release of instant noodles at that time also influenced it. Hence, rice was still precious at that time. Originally, it was only a snack, but it changed into a staple food.
