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❗
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'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
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.⛩
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
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.
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.
Went to Japan for three weeks in October of 23. If I had the money I would live in Japan. If only for a while.
また広島に来てくださいね!🙂
The background music is to loud, I can not hear the commenter or understand what is being stated, turn down the background music.
Wonderfully guided 5 recommendations to Hiroshima,thank you
As someone from Los Alamos, NM, going to Hiroshima would be kinda awkward.
Miyajima, Castle, Peace Park, and Museum. Is this possible for a day tour?
Womderful vid – To go to the different places by train, do I need a different train card or ICOCA would work well? Appreciate ur guidance.
Are there mushroom free food options there? I want to go to Hiroshima, mainly Japan in general, but I am allergic to mushrooms
宮島は寒い季節だったけど楽しかったですね😀今度は京都へ一緒に行きましょう!冥土の土産になるね(笑)
Will be visiting Hiroshima this October and really looking forward to seeing all the places that were recommended in this video.
It's an astounding contrast: The museum is harrowing and depressing and the peace park is gorgeous and hopeful.
Going here in the end of the moth so i am doing my research 😂 march 29 to April 3 2024

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?

Thanks for the video.
