  4. Hiroshima

Orig­i­nal­ly built in the 1590s, the cas­tle was destroyed by the atom­ic bomb­ing in 1945. The repli­ca, built in 1958, now serves as a muse­um for the his­to­ry of Hiroshi­ma before World War II.

The Itsukushi­ma Shrine and the Torii were declared a World Her­itage Site by UNESCO in 1996.

World famous is the wood­en torii of the Itsukushi­ma Shrine from 1875, which is locat­ed about 160 meters in front of the shrine. At low tide it can be reached by foot.

The island of Miya­ji­ma lies about twen­ty kilo­me­ters south­west of Hiroshi­ma. The Itsukushi­ma Shrine is locat­ed on the island.
