What you'll do

A dark legacy may be what Hiroshima is infamously renowned for but this surprising Japanese city is also a friendly, picturesque paradise for foodies. You could wander through the Peace Memorial Park, with tribute memorials and often even several survivors on-site and willing to share their stories. You could also enjoy a ferry ride to Miyajima, just twenty minutes away and famed for its floating torii in the Seto Inland Sea. Here you can also visit the oldest temple in Miyajima or allow your tastebuds a little treat whilst relaxing with a traditional Japanese sweet set, including delicious flavors from the Momiji Manju you’ll just have to try for yourself (local specialty, perfect as an ‘omiyage’, or food souvenir).

Where you'll go

A full day in Hiroshima could include many of the must-see sights, from the historic castle to the eerie atomic bomb dome site or wandering through the Peace Memorials Park. It could also involve many off-the-beaten-path secret finds - entirely up to you. Perhaps a ferry ride out the city is what you’re after, if so - Miyajima Island awaits and with its famed floating torii and the ancient, world heritage site of Itsukushima Shrine, provides a perfect representation of Japan’s spiritual culture. Whether you’re ticking off the must-see sights, hearing stories first-hand from Hiroshima survivors at the Peace Memorial Park or retracing the history of the samurais at the restored castle, your jam-packed full day of uncovering Hiroshima awaits.
