What other travelers are saying about Hiroshima Castle
A really beautiful place to visit if you have time, with cherry blossoms everywhere. A symbolic place, with middle school and below getting in for free. Has around 5 floors with many items preserved and kept safely. Thank you Hiroshima Castle for a fantastic experience.
It’s so peaceful walking around the castle area, you don’t need a ticket for that unless you’re getting inside the castle. Cherry blossom trees all over the place and the castle is so beautiful on its own. Go on a weekday
This is a reconstruction of the original as the wooden structures were destroyed by the bomb. The high ground of the castle remains an imposing position as demonstrated by the new build. The grounds of the castle, with its multiple moats, are well fortified and has now become a nice gathering area for visitors. Overall, a nice place to visit and sometimes shadowed by the other "atomic" related destinations.
I will rate this bases on just the outside of the castle. I wasn’t able to see the inside of the castle due to lack of time that I have in Hiroshima, but the outside view of the castle has a fantastic architectural design. This is the fist castle that I saw that was made from woods. The surrounding area of the castle is a nice park. Near to castle you will also find a wonderful shrine where you can buy some good luck charms.
From this place everyplace that is just walking distance. Like peace museum and a lot more.
Hiroshima Castle is a beautiful and historically significant site. The reconstruction is impressive, and the museum inside offers a fascinating glimpse into the castle's past and samurai culture. The grounds are lovely for a stroll, and the views from the top are fantastic. You can even try on some of the gear they have laid out
