Saturday, damn crowded! Even in the Maru, is really "people mountain people sea!" Everyone want to go Miyajima~ Yeah yeah...I am sure is a nice place~
Deers are roam freely. Deer are thought of as sacred in the native Shinto religion because they are considered messengers of the gods. U can see deers all around here. ^^V (They are cute, but I still don't dare to touch them)
1st trip that bring my X5 Kiss out "gai gai" around~ Hehe..still beginner and not really know how to use the functions well. Luckily gt my sifu-Raymond here. Especially manual mode, hard to shoot the picture nicely... >.
Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritahe Site. According to records, the shrine was established in the time of Empress Suiko. The warrior-courtier, Taira gave the shrine its present form.
The island of Itsukushima, including the waters around it (part of Seto Inland Sea), and are within Setonaikai National Park. This sea is affected by strong tides. At low tide, the bottom of the sea is exposed past the island's Torii. At high tide, the sea covers all the previously-exposed mud and fills areas underneath the Shrine. When we reached there, we managed to get near to the Otorii bacause it is still low tide period.
The position of the maple leaves under the Sun make the maple looks nice~ I like this photo. Do you? Haha ^^
Goju-no-to Pagoda from Senjō-kaku Temple. Just only see from outside.
This type of maple leaves are small. Damn small. Last time I thought all the maple leaves are in big size. Hmm, I think I am wrong now~ Haha...
At high tide, the Otorii from far~ Morning we still hanging around there beside the Otorii~
Miyajima= The Otorii + deers.
Bye Bye Miyajima~ Love this Island! Really a beautiful place ^^
