Tokyo to Hiroshima and Miyajima

重點

• The Nozomi runs from Tokyo to Hiroshima in about 4 hours with no transfers. A reserved seat costs about ¥19,000–20,000 one way.
• Flights from Haneda to Hiroshima Airport take about 1 hr 30 min. The airport bus to Hiroshima Station takes about 45–50 minutes.
• For Miyajima, take the JR Sanyo Line from Hiroshima Station to Miyajimaguchi (about 25–30 min), then the ferry (about 10 min).
• The tram (Hiroden) also reaches Miyajimaguchi, but takes about 70 minutes from Hiroshima Station. Boats also run to Miyajima from near the Peace Memorial Park.
• The Japan Rail Pass covers the JR Miyajima ferry. The Nozomi needs an extra charge, and the island's visitor tax is paid separately.
