Hola hermano! Mijayima it is really really beautiful. Me and my wife loved it. In fact Hiroshima prefecture is beautiful I want to go back. The weather, the mountains, the sea, it was almost perfect in September last year when we visited.
Hello Kenchan
Thanks for the video
Cheers
I visited beautiful Miyajima for just one day last year. I’d like to go there again in the future and stay longer.
Hi Kenchan, around 3:06, were those LUUP bikes by the hotel entrance? And during your stay in the Iwakuni, did you notice a lot of HelloCycling and/or LUUP bike stations?
Iwakuni seems like a relaxing area that doesn't seem to have a lot of tourists and I'm considering visiting that area on my next trip based on your video. I'd like the option of renting a bike and exploring the area that way rather than walking since I can cover more in less time.

Very well produced video, excellent work. 👊🏽.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Kengo-san, this was one of your best videos for me because I was interested in Iwakuni since I have friends who live there. The castle was nice. Was surprised how modern Hiroshima was. Excellent vlog. Arigato!🌺🍍🏝🥷😎🫶🏻💕
Thanks!
I love this video Kengo-San!
Iwakuni is such a hidden gem in my opinion, definitely worthy of an overnight stay if you have the time. I had never visited until my most recent trip and will definitely come back next time.
Miyajima again is such a beautiful location, especially if you can either get there early or stay overnight to avoid the crowds. Although the climb up Mount Misen to the observatory nearly broke me the views over the Seto Sea made it all worth while.
Thank you for sharing this beautiful area of Japan with us again.
Hi! Thanks for the video, it will help me a lot since I will have a stop in Miyajima next November.
