Huh?
Himeji is just a 3 hours stop on the way from Kyoto to Hiroshima to make
an example. You can leave Kyoto in the morning, stop in Himeji for the
castle and arrive comfortably in Hiroshima at 2:30pm, with enough time
to check in at the hotel and be in Miyajima in the later afternoon for
the sunset. It's all a matter of planning your trip properly.
Nikko can be done comfortably as a day trip from Tokyo. You can stay
longer than one day if you like, but except for the onsen and the
temples there is not much else to see. If you don't care about the
onsens, a few hours for the temples (very impressive) are enough.
Where you can spend a lot of time is Tokyo. I spent almost one week
there and only saw a small fraction of what Tokyo has to offer.
