Hiroshima: The Atomic Bomb and Itsukushima

Hiroshima is a stop worth making a special stop in the City of Peace. For 2 days and 1 night, between Peace Memorial Park and Itsukushima Shrine, experience the unique atmosphere of Hiroshima.

The first impression Hiroshima gives is almost always from the Peace Memorial Park. When it actually appears before your eyes, the imagination in the picture suddenly gains weight, and the journey officially begins from that moment.

When it comes to Hiroshima, locals usually first mention Itsukushima Shrine. Only after experiencing it do you realize that landmarks are never isolated scenery, but rather the gateway to an entire part of life.

Miyajima hides another side of Hiroshima. With less crowd from tourists and more daily warmth, you suddenly feel like you've briefly become one of these people.

If you have the energy, visit the Atomic Bomb Dome. There's no standard answer there, only your own pace, just filling your itinerary perfectly.

Hiroshima taught me one thing: you don't have to chase every sight, just as Peace Memorial Park taught me—the best scenery is often where you're willing to stop and take a closer look.
