Miyajima Island, Japan

While exploring the sights near Hiroshima, I spent the better part of the day on Miyajima Island. A tourist destination which can only be navigated on foot, the island hosts extremely docile deer (which you can pet), huge torri gates, a historic working Japanese village, and mountain monkeys (seen here). Deceiving with their furry coats, these monkeys are known for their dangerous aggression. I took this picture on the top of Mount Misen in the center of the island.
