Join this full-day bus tour from Hiroshima Station, as we will visit some popular attractions. The first stop will be Itsukushima Shrine at Miyajima Island, which is famous for the historic site of Shinto. This shrine is known as one of the most scenic spots in Japan.
You will enjoy the beautiful red shrine as if it were floating in the middle of the sea. We will also visit the Atomic Bomb Dome, which tells us how miserable the destructive effects of nuclear warfare are and how important peace is. We will also visit the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and Museum.
The castle, with its striking architecture and historical significance, stands as a testament to Japan's rich heritage. Its commanding presence amid the cityscape serves as a reminder of resilience and history, offering a fleeting but impactful view of Hiroshima's cultural heritage. The bus will stop by for photo taking.
When Japan joined the UNESCO World Heritage Convention in 1992, people including a-bombed survivors began to raise their voice in support of making the A-bomb Dome a World Heritage Site. A national campaign to collect signatures conducted by the citizens of Hiroshima was a success, and it was designated as a national historical site in June 1995 and registered on the list of World Heritage Sites in 1996 as a symbol calling for the abolition of nuclear weapons and for world peace.
On August 6, 1949, with the enactment of the Hiroshima Peace Memorial City Construction Law, it was decided that the entire Nakajima District would be devoted to "peace memorial facilities," and that was the beginning of what is now Peace Memorial Park. The park covers approximately 122,100 square meters. It was designed by Kenzo Tange, a professor at Tokyo University, and three others, whose proposal was selected through a design competition that drew 145 proposals. At the south edge of the park is a line of three buildings: the East Building the Main Building of the Peace Memorial Museum, and the International Conference Center Hiroshima.
