Package holiday to Hiroshima

Hiroshima is a city that has risen from the darkest hour of human history and today impresses as a vibrant memorial for peace as well as a modern, lively metropolis. On August 6, 1945, the first atomic bomb fell on a city here — an event that forever changed Hiroshima and showed the world the devastating consequences of nuclear weapons.

The Peace Memorial Park in the heart of the city is a profoundly moving place: The Atomic Bomb Dome, the only building near the epicenter that remained standing, is a UNESCO World Heritage site and a haunting symbol of destruction. The Peace Museum presents personal belongings, photos, and accounts from survivors (Hibakusha) that leave no one untouched. The Flame of Peace has been burning since 1964 and is meant to extinguish only when the last nuclear weapon in the world is destroyed.

However, Hiroshima is much more than its tragic history. The city is famous for Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki (layered pancakes with noodles, cabbage, and seafood), which are prepared in the countless restaurants of the Okonomimura building. The Shukkeien Gardens offer a miniature landscape of bridges, ponds, and tea houses. From Hiroshima, Miyajima Island with the famous floating torii is just a short ferry ride away. The city is consciously dedicated to peace and is a place that humbles and simultaneously offers hope — a must-visit on any trip to Japan.

Hiroshima particularly impresses with fascinating culture, excellent cuisine. As a package holiday destination, you benefit from attractive all-inclusive packages with flights, hotels, and often transfers – all at a fixed price and fully secured.
