Another day in Hiroshima!

Our last day in Hiroshima

We opted to sleep in this morning, because after last night we definitely needed a good sleep. Our new friends sure know how to party and definitely gave us an education last night. Haha Good Times.

When we finally got up this morning and got moving, we headed over to Hondori Street, literally translates to Main Street, which is the retail heart of Hiroshima. We spent a while wandering around, although we didn’t end up buying much of anything. We did try some fantastic Japanese food...even though I’m not sure what it was at this point. Haha

This afternoon we decided to take a day trip to Mitaki Temple which is just a short train ride out of Hiroshima. It is located in the valley of Mount Mitaki, it’s a temple of Kanon the Japanese Goddess of Mercy. The name of the temple comes from the three waterfalls that flow down the hill and through the temple’s gardens. Mitaki Temple is very serene and quite a relaxing place to be, especially because it is so incredibly beautiful!

We had another fabulous day in Hiroshima and are now sadly getting ready to leave this fine city tomorrow morning. :(
