Hiroshima, Japan

Why Walk Hiroshima

Hiroshima's compact city center is easy to explore on foot, with the Peace Memorial Park and Museum serving as the emotional core. The A-Bomb Dome, preserved exactly as it stood after the 1945 bombing, anchors a park filled with monuments, memorials, and the eternal flame. Beyond the park, Hiroshima is a surprisingly lively city with excellent street food — particularly its signature okonomiyaki — concentrated around the Hondori covered shopping arcade and Nagarekawa entertainment district. The Shukkeien Garden, a beautiful Edo-period strolling garden, offers a peaceful counterpoint. A short ferry ride reaches Miyajima Island with its iconic floating torii gate, one of Japan's most photographed sights.
