Yucheng & Tommy : Miyajima
Miyajima ,one of japan's three most scenic views, was a town located on the island of itsukushima in saeki district, hiroshima. It has been considered a holy place for most of Japanese history. Since ancient times the island itself has been worshipped as a god. In fact, the island's real name is Itsukushima, and Miyajima is just a popular nickname meaning "Shrine Island" It is famous for the floating trii (or gate), Itsukushima Shrine, Senjokaku (which means "1000 Mat Pavilion"),. And Daisho-in (a major Buddhist temple a short distance above Itsukushima Shrine).
As the island is one of the most scenic place in japan, we are going to film the beauty in the shrine and its one and only torii that stands in the ocean. If possible, we are going to film from the angle of a local deer or monkey…… or else it will be from the tour guide.
Most of us had been to a shrine before; this is a chance for us to understand the Japanese culture, tradition and religion. The most amazing thing is Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines have maintained a close relationship on the island!!! (like the indian temple in chinatown). As the island is described as a place where people and god live togother, I think we can teach a lot from the visit (our presentation).
