Itsukshima Shrine Fireworks Festival Hiroshima

Fireworks light the sky behind the torii gate, during the annual Itsukushima Shrine fireworks festival, Hiroshima, Japan.

Each year, on August 14th, Itsukushima Shrine hosts its most spectacular event - the fireworks festival. Three barges loaded with pyrotechnics are towed into the bay behind the giant torii gate. Rockets screech into the night, filling the sky with a myriad of fiery flowers and waterfalls.
