Daily Life In Miyajima Island
MIYAJIMA, JAPAN - APRIL 15: A Yamabushi monk carries a sacred sakaki branch during the processional rituals for the Hiwatari Shinji (Fire Walking Ceremony) at Daisho-in Temple on Miyajima Island, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan, on April 15, 2026. These mountain ascetics, who follow the ancient Shugendo tradition, use the evergreen branches to purify the ceremonial ground and invite divine protection. (Photo by Artur Widak/NurPhoto)
