Recommended for those planning a day trip to Hiroshima! Here’s the schedule I followed for my one-day Hiroshima adventure! 🚄 Around 9 AM: Arrive at Hiroshima Station! 🚃 Take the JR train to Miyajimaguchi! ⛴️ Board the ferry to Miyajima! ⛩️ Spend 2–3 hours enjoying Miyajima! First, visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Itsukushima Shrine. Then, stroll through the shopping street and savor momiji manju (maple leaf-shaped sweets)! The ice cream sandwich and fried momiji manju are absolutely delicious! Here’s a recommendation: try the momiji manju hand-baking experience! Reservations are required! 💰 Price per person: 880 yen ⚠️ Starting July 1, the price will increase to 1,000 yen. 📍 Location: Yamadaya Miyajima Main Store The experience is not only fun, but the freshly made momiji manju you bake yourself is amazing! You’ll also receive a souvenir of Kirioka sweets, which I personally preferred over momiji manju. I ended up buying a lot of Kirioka sweets from the souvenir shop below the experience venue! ⛴️ Take the ferry back to the mainland. 🚃 Take the JR train from Miyajimaguchi to Otake Station (about 15 minutes). 🚌 Take the free shuttle bus to Shimose Art Museum. ⚠️ The shuttle bus operates only on weekends and holidays! If visiting on weekdays, you can use the local bus instead. 🧑🎨 Shimose Art Museum Selected as one of the most beautiful museums in the world. The architecture is truly stunning—simply beautiful! If you’re visiting Hiroshima, this is a must-see spot! 💰 Price per person: 2,000 yen 🚌 Take the free shuttle bus back to Otake Station. 🚃 Take the JR train from Otake Station to Hiroshima Station. 🚈 Take the streetcar from Hiroshima Station to the Atomic Bomb Dome. 🍽️ Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki at Micchan Located on the first floor of Orizuru Tower next to the Atomic Bomb Dome. It’s a popular restaurant, so make sure to get a numbered ticket in advance! You can receive notifications via LINE about your waiting time. The udon noodles are delicious and highly recommended! 🏢 Visit the Atomic Bomb Dome Make sure to visit for peace education and reflection. 🍨 End your day with dessert at a gelato shop near the Atomic Bomb Dome. The portions are surprisingly large! 🚈 Take the streetcar back to Hiroshima Station. Before boarding the Shinkansen, buy plenty of souvenirs!

Hiroshima Castle is a Japanese castle located in Naka Ward, Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture. Originally constructed between the 16th and 19th centuries, the castle was completely destroyed during the atomic bombing in 1945. The current Hiroshima Castle is a reconstruction that aims to replicate its former appearance. This rebuilt castle has been designated as a national historic site and is recognized as one of Japan's Top 100 Castles.

The most interesting way to get around in Hiroshima is by the Hiroshima Electric Railway. This company was founded in 1910, started operations in 1912, and officially opened the Miyajima Line in 1922. It is now one of the few urban electric railways in Japan. Today, Hiroshima Electric Railway has 9 lines with a total length of 35 kilometers, carrying more than 50 million passengers each year. It is worth mentioning that when the atomic bomb exploded in Hiroshima, 108 out of 123 cars were turned into scrap metal, but the old 650-type electric trains No. 651 and 652 survived and resumed operation on the Miyajima Line the next day. He didn't retire until 2017. There are still a small number of Type 700 and Type 800 vintage trains in service today. What’s interesting is that when you arrive at a busy area, advertisements for local businesses will be included in the station announcements, giving it a nostalgic feel. The most commonly seen trains today are the 1000 and 5000 extended trains, which, with their high-tech appearance and large carrying capacity, continue to welcome tourists from all over the world. It is worth mentioning that this largest electric railway system in Japan also has a one-day ticket, which can be purchased at Hiroshima Station. The method used is quite traditional. Just scratch the date on the one-day ticket and show it to the conductor when you get off the train. This method replaces magnetic cards or IC cards. Perhaps it is also a way to retain some interpersonal interaction in traditional railways under the wave of technology. 💰Average consumption per person: 240 yuan per trip, 700 yen for a one-day ticket, unlimited rides. #MarchGoodPlaces2025

#MarchGoodPlaces2025 Hiroshima's famous scenic spot #ShockedEden is one of the 100 selected historical parks in Japan. The meaning of "ShockedEden" should be that the four seasons of Hiroshima are all condensed in this strolling pond garden. There are cherry blossoms in spring, fresh green in summer, and red leaves in autumn. When I visited, it happened to be the maple season. The small bridges and flowing water in the garden were dyed a deep red, which was quite charming. Shukkeien was built in 1620 by Asano Nagamori, the first lord of Hiroshima, but was completely destroyed when Hiroshima was bombed by an atomic bomb in 1945. It took many years of reconstruction to restore its original appearance. Shukkei-en is surrounded by high-rise buildings on all sides, giving it a sense of tranquility like an urban oasis in the concrete jungle, miniaturizing the Zen and poetic atmosphere of a Japanese garden. Next to it is the Hiroshima Prefectural Museum of Art and Hiroshima Castle Park, making it a great place to take a stroll along the way and appreciate the charming charm of Hiroshima. #HiroshimaTravel #Shookeien

A famous landmark in Hiroshima, the Atomic Bomb Dome is a remnant of the atomic bombing during World War II. At the moment of the explosion, the central dome was not completely destroyed, and parts of the concrete skeleton and outer walls remained intact, making it one of the few buildings that did not collapse under the impact of the blast. Seeing it up close is quite shocking! Across the river is the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, which features the Children's Peace Monument, the Peace Clock Tower, the Peace Bell, the Peace Fountain, the Flame of Peace, the Gates of Peace, and the Cenotaph for the A-bomb Victims. There are also three museums: the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, the Atomic Bomb Artifacts Exhibition Hall, and the Hiroshima National Peace Memorial Hall for the Atomic Bomb Victims. Like Nagasaki, the Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Site and Memorial Museum are filled with historical scars. Viewing the historical documents and photographs inside the museum evokes a sense of sorrow and makes one reflect on the cruelty of war.

Famous cities in Japan often have historical castles, and Hiroshima's representative castle is naturally Hiroshima Castle. Although it was destroyed by the atomic bomb during World War II, it was fortunately rebuilt and is now listed among Japan's top 100 castles. Its most distinctive feature is its jet-black structure, resembling a black carp, hence it is also known as the 'Carp Castle.' Getting to Hiroshima Castle is quite convenient. You can take the tram to Shukkeien-mae or Kamiya-cho, and it's just a ten-minute walk from there. Hiroshima Castle is a typical flatland castle built by Mōri Terumoto, one of the five elders close to Toyotomi Hideyoshi. At that time, its scale was comparable to Osaka Castle. Admission requires a ticket, which costs ¥370 for adults, making it quite affordable. The castle is divided into four floors, each serving as an exhibition room, with the top floor being the observation deck, offering a panoramic view of Hiroshima City. Surrounding the castle is Central Park, and there is also a Gokoku Shrine nearby that you can visit.

As soon as you enter the hotel lobby, you'll be captivated by its spacious and bright atmosphere. The warm and friendly staff will greet you with a smile, making you feel right at home. The guest rooms feature a modern and comfortable design. The spacious rooms offer a relaxing retreat, with soft, comfortable beds and spotless linens, ensuring a deep and restful sleep. With its outstanding service and comprehensive amenities, you'll realize that this hotel is more than just a place to stay from the moment you step outside.

#2月好去地方2025 Recently, the "Seto Inland Sea Art Festival", which is held every three years, is about to start, making Shodoshima popular again, and Shikoku island hopping is on the rise! Even if there is no art festival, a one-day slow tour of Shodoshima is highly recommended. Staying on the island for a night will allow you to experience the leisurely pace of life. #Shodoshima Olive Park The classic scene from Hayao Miyazaki's movie "Kiki's Delivery Service", the white windmill and the witch's broom, most tourists come here to check in and take photos. In fact, Shodoshima was the first place in Japan to plant olive trees. The Olive Park mainly displays the history of olive trees and their planting, and is free to visit. Against the backdrop of blue sky and white clouds, it looks very European coastal. #寒霞渓 Known as one of the three most beautiful valleys in Japan, you can take a double-section cable car to the observation deck to see the beautiful scenery of Shodoshima's mountains and seas, including the Seto Inland Sea, Mikasa Mountain, Shibodō, the Eight Views in the Sato and the Twelve Views in the Omote. In fact, Hanxia Creek is also a good hiking trail, especially in autumn when the red leaves are in season, it is even more beautiful when you hike to the top. #２４の瞳影画村 The movie "２４の眼" was filmed on Shodoshima in the early Showa era. The scenes built during the filming include residential buildings, wooden school buildings, and village alleys in the streets. It faithfully reproduces the scenes of the early Showa era, just like walking into a time tunnel. The movie depicts the touching stories between teachers and students on the Shodoshima campus. Whether you have seen the movie or not, it is highly recommended to visit. Tickets are ¥790. #Shodoshima Angel Road A famous natural attraction on Shodoshima Island. At low tide during sunrise and sunset, a 500-meter-long thin white sandbar trail slowly emerges, spanning to Bentenjima on the other side. Walking along Angel Road at dusk is quite romantic and a very famous check-in spot. Shodoshima is a great place for a slow and relaxing life. It is recommended that you do not rush to visit and leave.

Hiroshima, a town of slopes, sea, and cats 🐱 Unfortunately, since I visited in the middle of summer, I didn't see any cats during the day, but I heard there are many during cooler seasons 💕 My favorite town with a view of the sea. I spent about 4 hours taking the Senkoji Mountain Ropeway to the top, visiting Senkoji Temple, and walking down while taking photos 😊 (with a cafe break in between ☕️) On a sunny summer day, the view of the sea in the distance while descending the slopes and stairs was really wonderful ☺️ The view from the ropeway is in the 4th photo. The 5th photo is towards the Onomichi City Museum of Art 📸 The Seto Inland Sea could be seen far into the distance, and it was a spectacular view 🥹 If you want to see the cats, it might be better to visit during the cooler seasons 😊

As you step inside, a heavy atmosphere envelops you. The Atomic Bomb Dome, with its incomplete structure, silently tells the cruelty of war. Inside the museum, yellowed documents, damaged clothing, and survivors' tearful memories vividly present that dark history. People stand in silence, feeling the preciousness of peace and drawing strength to protect it. Moving to Itsukushima Shrine feels like stepping into a fairyland. As one of Japan's three scenic spots, its beauty is breathtaking. At high tide, the sea gently surrounds the shrine, making it appear like a mysterious palace floating on the blue sea. The vermilion buildings contrast with the shimmering sea and the clear sky, creating a picturesque scene. As you stroll along the winding paths, the sea breeze gently caresses your cheeks, bringing the fresh scent of the ocean. The lively deer on Miyajima Island add endless vitality to the tranquil island, sometimes grazing leisurely on the grass, sometimes affectionately approaching tourists, playfully nudging them with their wet noses. Hiroshima's cuisine is not to be missed. Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki is a local culinary masterpiece, skillfully combining a variety of ingredients and carefully cooking them on a teppan grill. The tender eggs, refreshing vegetables, and savory meats, paired with a special sauce, create a mouthful of happiness. Fresh and plump Hiroshima oysters are also a must-try delicacy. Whether grilled over charcoal, releasing a rich aroma at high temperatures, or simply steamed to retain their original flavor, the tender texture dances on your taste buds, showcasing the ocean's delicious gifts.

Hiroshima, Japan, has been a must-visit city on my “travel list,” for me as a liberal arts student who enjoys reading about the modern history of the world. In addition to experiencing the shock of World War II through the Hiroshima World Heritage Atomic Bomb Dome and the Peace Memorial Archives, this trip also learned more about the local post-disaster development. In fact, if Hiroshima did not experience the baptism of the atomic bomb, I believe it is just a small county, including 150 islands in the Seto Inland Sea, of which "Japan's three scenic spots" Miyajima is a must-visit place, the World Heritage Hiroshima Shrine "Aquatic Torii" is really grand and amazing; In addition, to count the most memorable, of course, there is a super delicious Hiroshima oyster lunch on Miyajima, now just looking at the photos is quite reminiscent. # Sign up for December hotel sleeper #JapanTravel #Japan Travelogue #Hiroshima

#100 Ways to Travel Hotel: Nest Hotel Hiroshima Ekimae 📍Address: 3-11 Aogami-cho, Minami-ku, Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture 💞Recommended reasons: The Nest Hotel Hiroshima Station, which opened in 2020, exudes a low-key and simple style everywhere. It has 8 floors and 141 guest rooms, ranging from single rooms to quad rooms. The first floor facade is clad in wood-grain veneer, and the lobby is in a classic, cozy, warm-toned style. There is a cafe lounge where you can rest and have breakfast, and the supplies are placed at the counter for guests to use freely. Transportation Guide: Exit from JR Hiroshima Station South Exit and walk towards the tram station for about 7 minutes. The sidewalk is wide but there is no awning. It is about a 15-minute walk from the MAZDA ZOOM-ZOOM Stadium. There are not many shops and restaurants nearby. There is a convenience store diagonally opposite. If you want to eat, you have to walk back to Hiroshima Station for more choices. The check-in and check-out procedures are simple. After registration, I got a single room on the 3rd floor. Judging from the floor plan, it seems to be the smallest room on the entire floor, with an area of ​​about 12 square meters, but it doesn't feel that crowded when using it. The guest rooms are decorated in a simple white, grey and black colour scheme. The bathroom is the size of an average business hotel, but luckily there is a bathtub for a soak. After checking out the next day, guests can enjoy free coffee and a bag of bread (containing three small loaves) provided by the hotel from 7 to 10 in the morning. The bread was unexpectedly delicious. After checking the information, I found out that it was natural yeast bread. The more I chewed, the more delicious it became. I think I might come back to stay here again just for this bag of bread.

[Hiroshima] Staying at a hotel used for the G7 Summit Hotel name: Grand Prince Hotel Hiroshima The entrance is impressive (^^) The windows in the rooms are large, so you can see the night view on a large screen. The hotel is spacious and has a wide selection of convenience store items, and they also sell souvenirs. There are many elevators, so it wasn't crowded! There is a large public bath, but it is not included in the hotel accommodation fee and you will need to pay separately, so be careful about this! (^^) The large public bath also had an open-air bath, which was nice. #AccommodationTravelRecord #100TravelStyle #Hiroshima #HiroshimaTrip
