Miyajima Tour Lunch Cruise

The Seto Inland Sea Lunch Cruise gives you access to both Hiroshima World Heritage Sites (the Itsukushima Shrine at Miyajima and the Atomic Bomb Dome) in one day. Take in the gorgeous views along the Seto Inland Sea as you enjoy an elegant full-course French meal, with many attractions awaiting you!

The Peace Memorial Park is located at the upstream tip of the delta formed by the confluence of the Ota and Motoyasu rivers. It is a city park established to honor the memory of the victims of the atomic bomb and to advocate for lasting world peace.

There are several monuments at the park, all of them built in hopes of promoting peace. Most notable are the Atomic Bomb Dome and the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. There are also Phoenix trees that are scarred from their exposure to the blast.

Itsukushima Shrine at Miyajima is dedicated to the gods that appeared when Amaterasu, goddess of the sun, and Susanoo, the god of the sea and storms, issued the Kendama Oath on the Takama no Hara (Plain of High Heaven). It has been revered since ancient times as a shrine that serves as protector of the Imperial Family and the nation as well as guardian of the seas.

It is known as one of Japan's three most celebrated scenic sights, along with the pine-clad islands at Matsushima and the sandbar at Amanohashidate. It was registered as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996.
