All Inclusive Holidays to Hiroshima

A visit to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is a must for every visitor. Here, you can pay your respects at the iconic Genbaku Dome, a haunting reminder of the devastating event that occurred almost eight decades ago. This UNESCO World Heritage Site stands as a solemn tribute to the lives lost and a dedication to the pursuit of peace.

Just a short stroll from the Peace Memorial Park, you will find the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. Through its extensive exhibits and multimedia displays, the museum provides a comprehensive account of the events before, during, and after the atomic bombing. It serves as a powerful reminder of the horrors of war and the city’s commitment to promoting disarmament and peace worldwide.

No visit to Hiroshima is complete without exploring the picturesque Miyajima Island. Known as one of Japan’s three most scenic spots, Miyajima is renowned for its magnificent Itsukushima Shrine. The shrine’s iconic torii gate, seemingly floating on the water during high tide, is a photographer’s delight. Take a leisurely stroll through the island, soak in the peaceful atmosphere, and don't forget to try some local delicacies like freshly grilled oysters.

Historical Personalities of Hiroshima

Aside from its tragic history, Hiroshima has also been home to several famous historical figures who have left an indelible mark on Japan and the world. One such influential person is Ota Dokan (1432–1486), a revered samurai warrior and the architect behind the construction of Edo Castle, which later became Tokyo.

In the realm of art, Hiroshige Ando (1797–1858), a renowned ukiyo-e woodblock print artist, called Hiroshima his home. His iconic prints depicting landscapes and famous sights of Japan have earned him international acclaim, and his works continue to inspire artists even today.

Another notable individual is Hideyo Noguchi (1876–1928), a pioneering medical scientist who made significant contributions to the research on yellow fever. Born in Inokuchi, part of present-day Hiroshima, Noguchi's relentless efforts in the field of medicine led to remarkable advancements in the understanding and treatment of infectious diseases.
