Hiroshima Japan

Hiroshima is a bustling industrial city, characterized by its wide boulevards and intersecting rivers, situated along the coast of the Seto Inland Sea. While many associate it with the tragic moment on August 6, 1945, when it became the target of the world's first atomic bomb attack, it has since evolved into a modern, cosmopolitan city known for its exceptional cuisine and vibrant nightlife. Hiroshima is home to two World Heritage Sites. The Itsukushima Shrine and the A-Bomb Dome, part of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial, are both located here. Hiroshima also boasts several historical sites. The Hiroshima Castle, located in the heart of the city, is a notable landmark. In Fukuyama-city's Tomonoura and in Takehara-city, you can explore the old town that dates back to the Edo era. However, in Hiroshima-city, few old buildings remain due to the destruction caused by the atomic bomb. Despite this, some structures like the Old Bank of Japan Hiroshima Branch and the Rest House still stand, showcasing their resilience. The Peace Memorial Park is dotted with various statues dedicated to the victims of the atomic bomb. In essence, Hiroshima itself serves as a living history book, narrating its own past.
