Peace Park makes you reflect, the Atomic Bomb Dome makes you grateful, and Miyajima's floating torii at sunset makes you cry happy tears.

Tide schedule (CRUCIAL for floating torii)

The 'floating' torii only happens at high tide. Plan around the tide chart:

• ●Check Japan Meteorological Agency tide chart for Miyajima (jma.go.jp tide)
• ●High tide = torii appears to float on water (THE iconic shot)
• ●Low tide = walk out to base of torii (also great experience)
• ●Mid-tide = neither magical
• ●BEST: Plan visit so high tide aligns with sunset (4-7 PM)

Final tips

Check the Miyajima tide chart BEFORE planning — aim for high tide aligned with sunset. Visit Peace Park in the morning when emotions are fresher. Don't skip Daisho-in (most people do). Eat oysters from street stalls, not restaurants (5× cheaper, equally good). And give yourself emotional space — this isn't a checklist destination, it's a moving experience.
