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!
Thank you for the nice comment! We hope you will have a great first trip to Japan!
Will be visiting Hiroshima this October and really looking forward to seeing all the places that were recommended in this video.
I'm planning to visit Japan for the first time this year so this was a great video as it gave a quick summary of things to see. When I watched another walking tour of Hiroshima Castle, it didn't seem like there was much to see inside (several rooms which show household items from that era). I gather that people mainly go to the top floor to see the view of the moat....didn't seem to take long to see this either. While it's a beautiful castle, I got the impression that it's great to see the outside architecture, but not much to see inside. Your thoughts? Also, for Shukkein Garden, how long would you suggest it takes to walk through this....just an approximate estimate. Thought it would take an hour or so, but I'd be better off spending time in the Peace Memorial Museum and other nearby sights. Appreciate your help. Thanks, Ron
Visited Hiroshima month ago. That feeling...❤
Thanks for the video.
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.
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
Thank you for the nice comment!
It really seems the Miyajima gate is what I’ve been recommended most. One day !
What a sad past! Happy to see how Japan has rebuilt it. Like Japanese architecture. Hope to visit some day. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the nice comment!
Wonderful recommendations and very informative! I really enjoyed my brief time in Hiroshima while in Japan in March. Their style of okonomiyaki is delicious.
Thank you very much for the nice comment! Glad you enjoyed your trip in Hiroshima, it definitely is a very special place.
Hi! Thanks for the video. I would add Mazda's Museum like a nice extra for Hiroshima ;)
Been there many times for each one, could not agree more with this
always love your intro :D
Thank you so much!
Thanks Charly!
You're welcome ;-D
good info 👍
We will visit Hiroshima when in Japan we are coming for 90 days Great video Thank you
Thank you for the nice comment and have a great time in Japan. 90 days, wow that's a long trip!
Thank you for this. Plan to spend a night at Hiroshima on my way from Hakata to Osaka in Oct.
Have a great trip!
Perfekt timing, I arrived at Hiroshima yesterday and was thinking about what to do 😅
Haha great timing indeed! Have a nice time in Hiroshima!
@japanguide thank you :)
Writing this from place nr.2
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 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.
Too bad you had rainy weather during your stay, hopefully next time it will be better!
Next time we will meet ❤
I'm going to Hiroshima in 2 days! Thank you so much for the video😄
Great timing! Have a nice time in Hiroshima :D
@@japanguide Thank you!
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❗
Thank you for the recommendation!
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
Hope you will get to visit Hiroshima some day!
Is miyajima a different island how do we go from the hiroshima station to this place?
Miyajima is indeed an island, and there are a few ways you can reach it from Hiroshima Station.
You can find all the detailed information and fares here: www.japan-guide.com/e/e3454.html
Hope this helps!
Going here in the end of the moth so i am doing my research 😂 march 29 to April 3 2024
Nice! Have a great time there!
Hi, 1 week ago i was in Miyajima buying at the chopsticks only store. I saw a guy stealing expensive chopsticks in his backpack, while his friend distracted the cashier. The thief saw me seeing him stealing. The cashier was involved in a conversation where she barely understood English and he spoke it bad as well. He kept her busy with some objection of the bill ( on purpose of course) . I stood in line for 10 mins and she was still dealing with him and the other kept stealing. Then I went outside looking for a policeman but I made it all the way to the ferry terminal without finding one!
I still feel bad for the store and girl, and for tourism, cause at some point its going to hit japanese retailers to find out that not all tourists are decent. There is bad people too.
Wish you can share this with relevant areas and warn retailers.
I try japan tourist visa but refusel my visa😢😢
尾道の千光寺公園も良いですよ。食事は尾道ラーメンが最高です。
4:56 Peace Park
It’s referred to as Hiroshimayaki in Hiroshima
I am spending 2 nights in Hiroshima in mid November of 2023. I will have one full day here. Can all 5 things be accomplished in one day?
It will be difficult to accomplish all 5 things within one day. If it helps we have a suggestion for a half day walking itinerary for Hiroshima: www.japan-guide.com/e/e3409_hiroshima_half.html
And a full day itinerary for Miyajima: www.japan-guide.com/e/e3458_miyajima_full.html
Hope this helps! Have a great trip!

Hiroshima style okonomiyaki is superior to Osaka style.
5:04 tell that to the americans.
