This includes approximately 30 minutes by JR Sanyo Line train from Hiroshima Station to Miyajimaguchi Station, followed by a roughly 10-minute ferry ride to Miyajima Island.

To successfully visit both Hiroshima and Miyajima in a single day, efficient time management and transportation are key. Prioritize must-see attractions in Hiroshima, such as the Peace Memorial Park, then allow ample travel time to Miyajima. Once on Miyajima, focus on Itsukushima Shrine and its Great Torii. Opting for a guided bus tour can greatly streamline this, as transportation and itinerary planning are handled for you, maximizing your sightseeing time and ensuring a comfortable experience with an English-speaking guide.
