Itsukushima, Japan

Hiroshima… The City that rose from its ashes! 71 Years ago the Enola Gay dropped the “The Little Boy” atomic bomb on Hiroshima, claiming the lives of over 100.000 civilians.

But Hiroshima is not just all about tragedy. Nearby Miyajima Island is a natural and spiritual sanctuary with its floating The Great Torii & Itsukushima Shrine at high tide and its wild deer which wander around the same sites as the tourists.
