Explore the temple grounds, which are home to three waterfalls, a vermilion-lacquered pagoda, and a main hall that juts out from the cliff. Meet your guide and set off on a journey to the Mitaki-ji Temple. Learn about the significance of the temple's three waterfalls, which are considered sacred in Japanese Buddhism and Shintoism. Hear how they are believed to be the dwelling place of gods and Buddha, or to wash away the impurities of body and soul. Stroll through the temple grounds, which are home to a vermilion-lacquered pagoda and the main hall, which was built to jut out from the cliff.

About Hiroshima
Hiroshima, on Japan's Seto Inland Sea, is a rebuilt river city whose Peace Memorial Park and museum recall the atomic bombing of 1945.
Hiroshima spreads across the delta of the Ōta River, whose channels, bridges and trams give the city an open feel. The atomic bomb of 6 August 1945 destroyed most of it. The Peace Memorial Park beside the river holds the Atomic Bomb Dome, a ruined building left standing and listed by UNESCO, the Peace Memorial Museum and the Children's Peace Monument.
