Hiroshima's creative pulse is felt in its streets — in the murals near Peace Memorial Park and Museum, in the galleries tucked into neighborhoods that most visitors pass without noticing. Walking is the only way to find them. Look for Onomichi — a creative corner that guidebooks consistently overlook.
Hiroshima is a city reborn, where the solemn Peace Memorial Park and the vibrant modern downtown coexist as a powerful testament to resilience. Walking here is both a deeply moving and uplifting experience.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided music & arts tour route in Hiroshima. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Peace Memorial Park and Museum — a profound museum documenting the 1945 atomic bombing with survivors' testimonies, artifacts, and the eternal flame for peace, plus hidden gems like Onomichi — a hillside temple walk accessible by train, with 25 temples connected by a scenic path overlooking the Seto Inland Sea and Okonomimura — a multi-story building near Hondori with dozens of tiny stalls each making Hiroshima-style layered okonomiyaki.

Hiroshima is known for history and peace, but creativity is woven into every corner. Street art appears visible around Peace Memorial Park and Museum, music drifts from doorways in neighborhoods off the main tourist path. Lesser-known creative pockets like Onomichi reward those who walk slowly enough to notice.
Hiroshima is flat and well-suited for walking, but rent a bicycle from the city's share system to cover more ground between the Peace Park and Shukkeien Garden.
April for cherry blossoms around the Peace Park or October through November for comfortable temperatures and autumn foliage on Miyajima.
