Frequently Asked Questions

Hiroshima is world-renowned as the city where the first atomic bomb was dropped during World War II on August 6, 1945. Today, the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome stand as stark reminders of this devastating event and are symbols of peace. Beyond its historical significance, Hiroshima is also known for its beautiful landscapes, including Miyajima Island with the iconic Itsukushima Shrine, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The best times to visit Hiroshima are spring (March-May) and autumn (September-November) when the weather is pleasant and the scenery is at its most stunning with cherry blossoms or autumn leaves. However, please note that these are also peak tourist seasons, so expect larger crowds at popular attractions. A two-day visit is typically sufficient to cover the main attractions in Hiroshima city.

The Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome are the city's most iconic sites. Other must-visit attractions include Hiroshima Castle, a replica of the original castle destroyed by the atomic bomb; Shukkeien Garden, a beautiful traditional Japanese garden; and Miyajima Island, famous for the Itsukushima Shrine and the floating torii gate.

Hiroshima is famous for its local rendition of okonomiyaki, a savory pancake filled with various ingredients like cabbage, pork, noodles, and topped with a sweet and tangy sauce. Another local specialty to try is anago-meshi, a dish made of grilled conger eel over rice. Hiroshima is also known for its oysters, which are often served grilled, fried, or in hot pots during the winter months.

While Peace Memorial Park and Miyajima are well-known, Hiroshima also offers several lesser-known attractions. The Mazda Museum offers a look into the history of one of Japan's leading car manufacturers. The Mitaki-dera Temple is a tranquil spot known for its beautiful autumn colors. For art lovers, the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art features works by both Japanese and international artists.
