Miyajima, Hiroshima Prefecture, home to the World Heritage Site Itsukushima Shrine, is dotted with numerous shrines along its coast. The seven shrines located in seven inlets (bays) are collectively known as the "Nanaura Shrines (Seven Ebisu Shrines)," and all are subsidiary or subsidiary shrines of Itsukushima Shrine.
This special two-and-a-half-hour tour, known as the "Nanaura Tour," takes you on a boat around the island to visit the ancient Nanaura Shrines. On board, a specialized guide will provide detailed explanations about the Oshima-mawari ritual and each shrine. Don't miss this rare opportunity to experience the history and mystery of Miyajima.
