Myooin Temple (Hiroshima Prefecture)
A historic Shingon Buddhist temple (Daikakuji branch) said to have been founded in 807 by Kobo Daishi (Kukai). Its Main Hall and Five-Story Pagoda are designated National Treasures. Built in 1321, the National Treasure Main Hall features Secchuyo-style architecture, which blends traditional Japanese (Wayō) design with elements of Chinese (Karayō) style. It is the oldest of its kind among similar structures around the Seto Inland Sea.
The photos come out with such a great vibe.
The bridge, the trees, the pagoda—you get the full Japanese aesthetic all in one place. -
Houkokuji Temple
This Kamakura temple received a three-star rating in the Michelin Green Guide Japan, a tourist guidebook aimed at overseas visitors to Japan.
After visiting Houkokuji Temple, I was deeply moved by its spiritual atmosphere and rich history. The temple's architecture and garden design really showcase the charm of ancient Japanese culture—truly impressive.

Tsunoshima Bridge
The Tsunoshima Bridge opened in 2000. The bridge connects the mainland side of Shimonoseki City, Yamaguchi Prefecture, with the remote island of Tsunoshima. With a total length of 1,780 meters, it is one of the longest bridges over a remote island in Japan that can be crossed for free.
There aren't many tourist facilities around here, so you really have to consider whether it's worth making the trip. Honestly, this spot felt like a bit of a waste of time.
