Daily Life In Miyajima Island
MIYAJIMA, JAPAN - APRIL 15: Yamabushi monks in traditional Shugendo attire walk in procession under red umbrellas during the Hiwatari Shinji (Fire Walking Ceremony) at Daisho-in Temple on Miyajima Island, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan, on April 15, 2026. This ancient ritual is held twice a year to pray for world peace, good health, and the purification of the spirit. During the ceremony, monks and laypeople walk barefoot over smoldering cypress embers, a practice believed to burn away worldly desires and grant the fulfillment of prayers.
