@MicknFumi on my last trip i had half a day in hiroshima and half a day on Miyajima to be honest though half a day isn't enough for each. On my next trip i'll spend a day on each.
@pas7680 Thats the one, yes I'm looking forward to visiting there. I feel a bit funny about checking out the nuke related stuff. I prefer to steer clear of things regarding that era, I think it gets brought up enough already & prefer to focus on other things. Thats why we only went as far as Himeji on our last trip, but we'll be passing through on the next one, so it would be silly not to stop in for at least a day.
@pas7680 Ah ok I havn't been further South than Himeji so far, we plan to head down that way in January. Thanks for the info, we'll probably delegate our time to other places then. I'm really keen to see that place down on the ocean with the Torii in the water : )
@pas7680 Really? Which ones didn't allow you to film? The only one I can think of atm is inside the main living quarters of Nijo castle & I've been to about 25 castles in Japan. Its usually the inside of Shinto & Budhist temples & shrines that don't allow cameras in my experience.
@pas7680 Thanks for the tip, will definately spend a day in Miyajima. Maybe even stay overnight there : )

Were you actually allowed to film in the castle? Most castles i've been to in japan don't allow it.
