What other travelers are saying about Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park
Impressive and good learning for some history about hiroshima. The story telling is interesting and very educational. To my liking it is too long of a tour but for others maybe not. During our visit it was very crowded and there was a filming crew where it caused the flow to be very slow.
Beautiful park.
Well kept and clean.
There was a small outdoor exhibition when we went and what appeared to be a volunteer run paper crane origami station. It was a great way to take in the peace memorial and pay respects without entering the museum.
Simply put, an amazing place to visit. Beyond the gorgeous looks and the natural exhibits throughout the premises, the park transmits a message that should resonate with us all - war is horrible in all possible ways, peace is what should unite us all and nuclear weapons should not ever be used again, it's hard not to feel emotional walking throughout it. The park has many monuments worth visiting if you're in Hiroshima, and it's situated just across the river from the famous atomic dome. On the North side of the park you'll also find the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, which contains an amazing permanent exhibition that highlights the devastating consequences the use of the atomic bomb has had on the city. Worth visiting!
This is a place to visit if you are in Japan and discovering. It is important because it reminds you of why peace is the only way forward after the tragic event of the first atomic bomb in the history of mankind was used by the US Gov in the 2nd world war.
It is not a light visit and will bring out different Emotions and feelings of anger and indignation…
Amazing historic site that shows how cruel humans can be to one another.
Seeing the dome building in person was an emotional experience.
The memorial park and the museum was very crowded which detracted from the overall experience. There was so many people inside the museum it was hard to see the exhibits in there entirety.
Overall a very memorable visit.
