Depart from Hotel Granvia Hiroshima and Start to Visit the World Heritage Sites of Itsukushima Shrine on Miyajima

At picturesque Miyajima, one of the Three Views of Japan, seeing wild Japanese deer amidst the untouched, abundant nature is one of the joys to look forward to. Miyajima is a World Heritage site. Established in the 6th century, this shrine is one of Japan's finest, and is famous for its beautiful Shinden-zukuri style structure (architecture representative of a nobles' residence in the Heian period). The contrast of the green of Mt. Misen behind the lacquered shrine pavilion and the blue of the Seto Sea is beautiful and evocative of the underwater palace of Ryugujo. Time for lunch is allotted on Miyajima. This region is known for oysters, Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, and conger eel rice bowl, which are available at many shops on Miyajima. Customers are free to enjoy their preferred meals.

Visit Hiroshima's Atomic Bomb Dome on this leisurely tour.

At the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum's Main Building, which reopened in April 2019, learn more about the situation and life in Hiroshima after the bombing and gain a deeper understanding of the importance of peace.This large-scale park was established in 1949 after the Pacific War ended, and is visited by countless visitors as a symbol of peace. The museum within the park is an Important Cultural Property of Japan, and was built to remind future generations of the terror wrought by atomic bombs. The Atomic Bomb Dome is a symbol of the disastrous atomic bombing during WWII, the first atomic bombs used in human history, and has been preserved as it was to promote peace and elimination of atomic weapons around the world.
