2013,Feb 8th-9th Miyajima Oysters Festival!!!

In the second weekend in February Oysters, Miyajima's specialty, are served at low prices.

Date: 2013,Feb 8th-9th
Location: In front of the Miyajima pier.








Miyajima’s oyster festival is held every year, over two days on the second weekend in February. To be honest, the prospect of getting up early to line up in the cold for oysters at a few hundred yen less than at a warm restaurant was, unsurprisingly, never that appealing. An unseasonably sunny and warm February Sunday certainly helped us get out of the door.

It is the  best season for Oysters on February!!
Why don't you come and visit Hiroshima and Miyajima on February!!!
