Hiroshima Private Tour - In and around the Peace Memorial Park, you may encounter many cenotaphs and monuments.  This monument is standing in a corner, but just in front of Bell of Peace.  It reads that we dedicated this bell as a symbol of Hiroshima aspiration. Let all nuclear arms and wars be gone. And the nations live in true peace! May it ring to all corners of the earth to meet the ear of every man, for in it throb and palpitate the hearts of its peace-loving donors. So may you, too, friends. Step forward and toll the bell for peace.

Hiroshima Private Tour - This old Fukuro-machi Elementary School is another testimony to convey the disaster of A-bombing since it served as one of relief stations. Many people wrote massages to tell or inquire the latest news of survivors' whereabouts on the walls of the school during that time and some of them still remain there even now.  It is located just a couple of min. from the busy shopping street.

Hiroshima Private Tour - Enjoy Okonomiyaki ! ...I know the best Okonomiyaki restaurant in Hiroshima (chuckle).  Okonomiyaki is a Japanese pizza or pancake full of chopped up veggies and meats/or seafood.  We. the locals  love this food.  Famous sweet and spicy sauce makes the Okonomiyaki tastier.  Cut into a bite size and eat with Kote (spatula type cutlery). That is the way we do. Give it a try.  In wintertime,  you may enjoy oysters here, which are also Hiroshima's delicacy. Quickly fried with butter...uh, yam...

Hiroshima Private Tour - When you roam central Hiroshima, you may notice irresistible smell of freshly baked breads. Yes. It comes from this "Anderson" building, a very famous bakery shop in Hiroshima. We may drop in at this store for a cup of coffee. This building was also A-bombed but still well used for commercial purpose. Unfortunately it is planed to rebuild in the near future to enhance earthquake disaster prevention measures.

First up, I bring you to Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. Hiroshima is well known as the first atomic bombed city in the world history. You walk and drop by at many spots built to commemorate the victims and learn more at the Peace Memorial Museum. After that study tour, we roam around Central area and finally arrive at Okonomiyaki restaurant for early supper. Okonomiyaki is Hiroshima's soul food; a savory pancake filled with chopped vegetables, meat, sea food, noodle, egg... Just give it a try.

Reviews

Hiroshima peace park and Miyajima island

Mayumi met us at the port and we then took a taxi to ferry port to visit Miyajima island where we visited many shrines and temples including the famous O-Torii shrine in the sea . Ferry back to mainland then train and tram to Atomic dome at ground zero and peace park and museum which was very moving. Mayumi was very friendly and knowledgeable and explained everything to us. Another great day.

Hi, Chris. I really appreciated the time I shared with you. Wishing you and your family a good health and happiness. In gratitude, Mayumi

Mayumi was very flexible with our changing schedule

I felt sorry for Mayumi, who had planned a wonderful day for us, when our ship arrived two and a half hours behind schedule at 3:30 in the afternoon. She was able to adapt well to our needs, we wanted to see the Peace Park and Miyajima Island, and knew it would be tight for both. She was able to secure us a large taxi van instead of two cars for our group of five, and we went first to the Peace Park. I know she was disappointed in us not being able to see the large museum, but we didn’t have time to do it justice and it was overcrowded. She managed to get us on the ferry and to Miyajima at exactly the right time for the sunset and then back on the 7:00 p.m. ferry and back to our ship. We could never have done it without her, and it was a delight to spend the afternoon and evening with her. I would have loved to have had our whole day, and she was a good sport about cutting it short. Thanks Mayumi!
