  Other Coffee Shop
  
  This shop opens at 8:30 in the morning, making it a perfect place for a basic breakfast. We recommend this for travelers looking to get an early start to the day. Originally established as a coffee shop in 1966, this is great spot to enjoy some fresh bread and a strong cup of the black stuff.

  If you visit Itsukushima, you must stop at this shrine. As the entrance and exit are in separate places, one must respect the rule of walking on one side while on the grounds. There are plenty of spots inside for taking photos. Before the Hirabutai and in front of the Hitasaki is a great sightseeing spot where you can see Otorii city.

  We recommend this restaurant located in Itsukushima's Omotesando shopping alley for lunch. Eat Hiroshima's famous oysters to your heart's content. The Kakiya set not listed on the menu is the restaurant's most famous meal.

  Other Coffee Shop
  
  We recommend taking a rest here near the five-story pagoda after so much walking. Inside of an old warehouse built in the Taisho era, this place is known for its relaxed atmosphere. Their drip coffee is a must-try.
