Omotesando Shopping Street, Miyajima | Japan Solo Travel 2017
June 09, 2017

| My itchy fingers obviously wanted an ornacle, but they're all written in Japanese. |
Miyajima was considerably more massive than I expected it to be, and I had to utilise Google Maps to find my way to Itsukushima Shrine. Couldn't resist entering these shops along Omotesando Shopping Street because they had such adorable Japan souvenirs for sale!

| Oh Japan, you know the way to my heart! |
Miyajima is famous for their momiji manju, a steamed bun shaped like a Japanese maple leaf. Momiji manju is traditionally filled with red bean, but there has been an increase in the varieties of flavours available like chocolate, cheese and cream.
