Hiroshima

There’s more to Hiroshima than tragic history, as you’ll quickly find when you explore Hiroshima Castle. While the original castle was built in 1589, as the centerpiece of feudal Hiroshima, it was destroyed by the atomic bomb and rebuilt in 1958 as a museum of pre-WWII Japanese history. From the castle’s top floor, you’ll enjoy panoramic views of Hiroshima and the surrounding countryside.Do not forget to visit Miyajima island by a short ferry ride
