The Mystical Japan
When one thinks of Japan, they may think of bustling cities crammed with people, or a romanticized world of kimono clad women and tea houses. Many of these things can be found in Japan, but the Japan that most impressed me was the serene, mystical Japan I found on Miyajima Island.
Miyajima Island is a short train and ferry ride from Hiroshima. Approaching the island, beautiful Mount Misen greets you with a majestic presence. Then, the large, red Otorri gate shimmering on the water indicates you are entering a Shinto shrine. This gate is constructed from large beams of wood and supports its own weight as it stand in the sea.
Upon arriving on the island you are welcomed by a greeting committee. The greeting committee, wild deer, run freely throughout the island. The Shinto religion believes that spirits live in nature, including animals, therefore they are unharmed and able to run freely. Along with your new found friends, the deer, you walk along a path to the Itsukushima Shrine, a wonderful floating shrine that is situated on the beach. As the tide changes, water flows underneath the shrine giving the illusion of a floating oasis.
