Activity itinerary

Atomic Bomb Dome
  • 20m
Travellers will witness the haunting yet powerful remains of the Atomic Bomb Dome, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that stands as a symbol of resilience and peace. You will learn about the tragic events of August 6, 1945, and how Hiroshima transformed from devastation to a beacon of hope and global peace advocacy.
Peace Bell
  • 10m
The Peace Bell symbolises harmony and a world without nuclear weapons. Its deep, echoing sound serves as a reminder of global unity, encouraging reflection on peace and the hope for a better future.
Monument to Korean Victims and Survivors
  • 10m
This monument honours the Korean victims of the atomic bombing, recognizing their suffering and contributions to Hiroshima’s history. It serves as a symbol of remembrance, reconciliation, and the pursuit of lasting peace.
Children's Peace Monument
  • 10m
Dedicated to the memory of children who lost their lives due to the atomic bombing, this monument was inspired by Sadako Sasaki, a young girl who folded paper cranes in hope of survival. Surrounding the statue, thousands of colourful cranes sent from around the world symbolise a collective wish for peace.
Peace Flame
  • 10m
Burning continuously since 1964, the Peace Flame represents the commitment to a world without nuclear weapons. It will remain lit until all nuclear arms are abolished, serving as a powerful symbol of hope and a reminder of Hiroshima’s message of peace.
Hiroshima National Peace Memorial Hall for the Atomic Bomb Victims
  • 20m
A place of quiet reflection, the Peace Memorial Hall honours the victims of the atomic bombing through personal stories, photographs, and survivor testimonies. Its design encourages visitors to contemplate the impact of war and the importance of peace.
The Cenotaph
  • 10m
An arched monument inscribed with the words "Let all the souls here rest in peace, for we shall not repeat the evil." It holds the names of all known victims of the atomic bombing and aligns perfectly with the Peace Flame and Atomic Bomb Dome, symbolising remembrance and a commitment to peace.
Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum
  • 10m
  • Admission ticket included
I will purchase your entrance ticket to the Peace Memorial Museum in advance, so you can skip the long line. Please note that you will visit the museum on your own, as tour guides are not allowed to speak inside. It typically takes about one and half hour to go through the museum
Gates of Peace
  • 20m
A series of ten glass gates inscribed with the word "peace" in multiple languages, symbolising Hiroshima’s universal message of harmony. These gates stand as a reminder of the collective hope for a peaceful world, inviting reflection as visitors pass through
