Hiroshima rankings

Hiroshima combines a moving encounter with modern history and easy access to the islands of the Seto Inland Sea. Spend time at the Peace Memorial Museum and Park, then explore Shukkeien Garden and the city’s art museums. Across the water, Miyajima offers Itsukushima Shrine, wooded mountain paths and traditional inns. Stay several nights to include the island without rushing, and reserve ahead for the city’s small sushi counters and French restaurants.
