⛩️ 潮が満ちると海に浮かび、潮が引くと歩いてすぐ近くまで行ける。同じ大鳥居なのに、潮の満ち引きでまったく違う景色に出会えるのが宮島の魅力。🌊✨ 今回は御笠丸に乗って、海の上から大鳥居を間近で見る

The iconic vermilion torii gate that appears to float on the water at high tide and can be walked up to at low tide. It's a powerful symbol of Miyajima and offers dramatically different views depending on the tide.

- Great Torii at high tide — The majestic Great Torii appears to float on the sea, creating a breathtaking and iconic view. This is the classic image of Itsukushima Shrine, best experienced from the shore or a boat.
- Great Torii at low tide — At low tide, you can walk directly up to the base of the Great Torii, allowing for an up-close inspection of its massive pillars and the marine life clinging to them. It's a completely different perspective from the floating view.

A UNESCO World Heritage site on Miyajima Island, famous for its 'floating' torii gate. The shrine complex itself is built over the water, offering a unique architectural experience. It's a place where you can witness traditional rituals and explore beautiful corridors.

- Sacred ritual — Witnessing a sacred ritual inside the shrine, with priests in traditional attire performing ceremonies. The atmosphere is serene and deeply spiritual, enhanced by the soft glow of lanterns.
- Miyajima deer — Wild deer roam freely around Miyajima Island, often seen on the beaches and near the shrine, adding to the island's natural charm. They are generally accustomed to people but should be observed respectfully.

Viewing the Great Torii from a cruise
I took the Mikasamaru sightseeing cruise to see the Great Torii from the sea. It's an unforgettable perspective, especially when the tide is high and the torii appears to float. The view of Itsukushima Shrine from the boat is also different and very moving compared to seeing it from land.
