Trip to Japan2

Miyajima.

 

One of world heritages which is located approx.25km away from Hiroshima city.

With its pretty yet sublime scenery, it is one of most popular visiting spot for people from overseas.

 

As photo in my camera is not really expressing well the beauty,

...

 

I have borrowed some nice looking ones:

 

 

 

 

In autumn, leaves of Momiji trees will be turning to red.

Greens are still looking good though...

 

 

 

Hiroshima (as a prefecture) is famous for oysters and Okonomiyaki which I will introduce in the next entry or so..

 

 

Miyajima is also famous for a 'momiji manju' which is a sweet cake made of sponge like dough with sweet Aduki bean paste inside.

The figure is exactly the same as those (the leave of momiji)  in the above in the photo while these are savoury type deep fried fish cakes.

 

 

 

Here is lunch of the day - Katsudon, a deep fried pork with bread crumbs which is in Japanese called Ton-katsu(it is similar to Schnitzel, just 'similar') covered with eggs on top of rice (we call this style 'Donburi') (Katsudon is a mixture/short of Tonkatsu and Donburi)

 

 

 

Hope to visit there again when Momiji trees turn red.
