About This Tour
Discover Hiroshima through a personal storytelling walk with a guide who has lived here for over two decades. After studying Japanese arts and spending time with an atomic bomb survivor, I share a perspective shaped by real connections and lived experience. We can begin at Shukkeien Garden or Peace Memorial Park, depending on your preference. From there we explore Hiroshima Castle and Gokoku Shrine, learning about the city’s culture and resilience. As we follow the Peace Line into the Park, I highlight small details and stories most visitors miss. We continue to the A-Bomb Dome and, if you choose, the Peace Memorial Museum. The pace is relaxed, with time for questions, reflection, and even a coffee break. This is not a rushed sightseeing tour, but a warm and meaningful introduction to Hiroshima’s past and present.
