Welcome to Hiroshima. Hiroshima was the biggest surprise of our trip to Japan - in this video, we show you exactly why. The first part of the video is all about the city's past and its role as the first city in history to experience the devastating impact of an atomic bomb. We'll take you on a tour of some of the city's most iconic landmarks, including the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and Museum, the Atomic Bomb Dome and Ground Zero. We'll also talk about the meaning behind some of Hiroshima's most iconic monuments and sculptures, including the Bell of Peace, the Flame of Peace and the Children's Peace Monument. The first part of the video is not easy to watch but we hope it helps to inspire you to visit this amazing city.
The second part of the video is way more light-hearted. We were here right before Christmas and were treated to the most beautiful Christmas lights show. Hiroshima during Christmas is just stunning! We also had amazing food here (including the traditional okonomiyaki). We just wish we had had more time to explore the Hiroshima castle and visit the gardens. But we'll definitely come back for more.
It's an honour to share the beauty of Hiroshima and hope that you too, one day, can experience this city's unique culture and history for yourself.
In the next episode, we're taking a ferry to the beautiful Miyajima Island. We'll sample local cuisine, browse traditional markets, and experience momiji at its best. 🍁 🦌 See you there!
