What other travelers are saying about Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park
Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is a deeply moving and historically significant destination that I had the chance to visit twice. On the first day, I explored the area around the Atomic Bomb Dome, and on the second day, I visited the Hiroshima Peace Museum. Both experiences were profound and offered a powerful reminder of the tragedy and resilience of humanity.
I highly recommend visiting earlier in the day, as major museums in the park close after 5:00 PM. The museum is an essential stop, as it vividly portrays the devastating impact of the atomic bomb and honors the victims with heartfelt exhibits.
The park itself is beautifully arranged, creating a calm and reflective atmosphere for visitors. It’s a place that leaves a lasting impression, encouraging reflection on peace and the importance of preventing such disasters in the future. A must-visit location in Hiroshima.
This was my most meaningful stop in Japan. To be on the ground where such tragic history happened was sobering. The museum gives two free tours in English almost every day. I would also recommend visiting at night. There is a bus that comes right from the train station.
It was a very nice experience. I really felt touch when I went into the museum. All the memorial make an impact. And I think it is good that they kept the dome A because you can imagine how bug was the impact. And so hopefully when people come here they won't make war but try to make our futur world into real peace !
The museum was really good also. I think you should spend 1 whole day here if you can.
Beautiful park near the museum with lots of greenery and memorial stones.
Walking distance the "sole building/frame" that withstood the devastating atomic bomb carnage.
A must to visit if you are in Hiroshima
Absolutely amazing experience. After visiting Peace park you will leave with deeper understanding of history of Hiroshima and it’s Ongoing missions towards peace
