Why visit Hiroshima

On 6 August 1945, Hiroshima became the first city to be struck by an atomic bomb. Today it is a lively, green city of rivers and trams, and the ruined Atomic Bomb Dome stands beside the Motoyasu River as a World Heritage memorial, facing the Peace Memorial Park and its museum.

Visitors come to understand what happened and why, and to see how the city chose to rebuild. A short ferry ride away, the island of Miyajima is known for the great torii gate of Itsukushima Shrine standing in the sea.
