You will realize what happened to the people living an ordinary life here, and how they survived after being deprived of the future they had envisioned. You will walk around Hiroshima, a beautiful and peaceful city reborn, and feel the underlying strength of the people who rose from the ruins.
I worked as a local government official in the Hibakusha (A-bomb survivors) Support Division for 12 years and continue interacting with Hibakusha. Therefore, I can accurately convey things about A-bomb survivors, the reconstruction of Hiroshima, and the effects of radiation on the human body to you.
The Tower of Hiroshima Castle is a museum where you can learn about the history and culture of Hiroshima. Also near the castle are the A-bombed trees and the remains of the communications room where the first news of the atomic bombing was transmitted.
Soothe your tour fatigue at the beautiful Shukkeien, a Japanese garden.
