Japan – Hiroshima to Miyajima  December 14, 2002

 

 

 

We took a cable car up to the top of the one mountain on the island, and the city of Hiroshima is below you .

Walking down the mountain, we passed numerous shrines, but this was the most different – the Daisho-in Temple, head of a sect of Bhuddism.



And there were tons of deer on the island .
