Overview

Hiroshima is a city of peace, resilience, and rebirth — a place where history and hope walk hand in hand. Once rebuilt from the ashes of tragedy, Hiroshima today shines as a symbol of strength, compassion, and forward-looking spirit.

Begin your visit at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, a moving tribute to the lives lost in 1945. Here, the Atomic Bomb Dome, Peace Memorial Museum, and the serene Children’s Peace Monument remind visitors of the city’s enduring message — never again.

Take a short ferry to Miyajima Island, home to the breathtaking Itsukushima Shrine and its famous floating torii gate, one of Japan’s most photographed sights. Wander through Hiroshima Castle, taste the city’s beloved okonomiyaki (savory pancake), and explore local spots like Shukkeien Garden and Hondori Street for shopping and dining.

Hiroshima is more than a city — it’s a powerful story of renewal and peace. Whether you come to reflect, explore, or connect with Japan’s heart, Hiroshima travel offers a journey that inspires both remembrance and hope for the future.
