Himeji-castle - The large park is frequently used for traditional celebrations and ceremonies - at the time I visited here,
the park was being used for "Hanami-party". During the " cherry-blossom - season " going out for a picnic is very popular all over Japan


visitors have to carry their shoes in a plastic-bag to protect the old wooden floors

Japan´s most famous landmark - the " Torii of Miyajima " ( an island near the city of Hiroshima )
to go there by ferry-boat takes about 20 minutes

at high tide the huge arch is partially submerged under water
