I was in Hiroshima and Miyajima four years ago. Out of the cities I visited in Japan, Hiroshima is the one that felt the most genuine, and it really had a good and positive vibe.
I visited the Peace Memorial with a friend, and after exiting we both felt the need to seat in silence for a while to gather our thoughts. It was an immense punch to the soul, but I would make the visit a requirement for all world leaders as it is a real eye opener to the reality of cruelty and devastation that is war.

Hiroshima is a place that every human being must visit at least once. It can be a deeply impactful and shocking experience, but beyond that invaluable learning, it also offers a plethora of magnificent tourist attractions and local cuisine. Speaking of Miyajima, I would highly recommend staying until evening when the sun sets. The giant torii gate and Itsukushima Shrine are illuminated, creating a truly enchanting and magical view.⛩

It's an astounding contrast: The museum is harrowing and depressing and the peace park is gorgeous and hopeful.

I will be in Hiroshima at the end of May! This video couldn't have come at a better time.

I'm so excited for my first trip to Japan. It will be 34 days long!

How another great video! A inspiration for my future travels. I can't wait to start working on Kyoto and then travel trough Japan! Thanks

Wonderful recommendations and very informative! I really enjoyed my brief time in Hiroshima while in Japan in March. Their style of okonomiyaki is delicious.

What a sad past! Happy to see how Japan has rebuilt it. Like Japanese architecture. Hope to visit some day. Thanks for sharing.

Shukkeien garden is so wonderful! I really recommend on visiting it ❤
Make sure to explore all of it, as there are many parts and some are a little bit hidden, I have spent there few hours as it was just so good! 😍
So for me it is the #1 attraction in Hiroshima and one of my most favorite places in Japan.

[Sutlore]

Been there many times for each one, could not agree more with this

Hi! Thanks for the video. I would add Mazda's Museum like a nice extra for Hiroshima ;)

[WhatsinJapanMan]

It really seems the Miyajima gate is what I’ve been recommended most. One day !

[tedesca]

Perfekt timing, I arrived at Hiroshima yesterday and was thinking about what to do 😅

I was in Hiroshima a few weeks ago but unfortunately, it rained the entire 2 days I was there. A tip for travellers to Itsukushima - time your visit there for low tide and you'll get the unique experience of walking all the way up to the torii gate! Wear appropriate footwear though as they're blind to get sandy.

Will be visiting Hiroshima this October and really looking forward to seeing all the places that were recommended in this video.

[fufu]

Thank you for this. Plan to spend a night at Hiroshima on my way from Hakata to Osaka in Oct.

[waikikisurfingschool]

One day I need to visit. I lived in Japan for 25 years and visit Japan a few times a year. From Tokyo to Osaka to Fukuoka I always never have time for Nagoya or Hiroshima

I visited Hiroshima and Miyajima Island for the first time a month ago, but still another great top 5 things to do in x city video regardless.

Hmm. Turns out I was able to do everything on this list except for visiting the garden.

I live in Hiroshima. We recommend watching Kagura, a traditional performing art, when sightseeing in Hiroshima at night. I think the attractive stage will be a valuable experience❗
