Today only short ride to Hiroshima and under a really good weather.We arrived in the city and visited the peace memorial park before we start looking for place to stay. The first J-Hoopers Hostel was fully booked and the 2nd guesthouse Renno Inn can only check-in at 4 pm, we tried the 3rd one K's Hiroshima and its 3rd time lucky that they have a private Japanese style room for 3500 yen each, the room was quite small compared to the one in Beppu,but nevertheless we were tired of searching anymore, so we decided to stay for one night.After a quick bath and instant mee,we took the city tram to go to another Unesco World Heritage Site in Miyajima Island.The journey took 1 hr to reach the port,where we took a ferry across to the Island.The 1 day fare for tram plus ferry is cheap only 840 yen. We loved the place as there are many scenic forest,river,temple,and we had taken lots of pictures especial the famous Otorii Gate.Back to hostel was already 8.30pm and cooked our dinner.

Otorii Gate is the symbol of Miyajima. Constructed from camphor wood, this awesome structure stands 16m high with a supporting base 10m in circumference.
Its base appears as if it were buried in the ocean floor.
However, it actually stands on the ocean bottom supported by its own weight.
