Orizuru Tower

Orizuru Tower is a 13-storey observation building in central Hiroshima, standing directly beside the Atomic Bomb Dome. Opened in 2016, it offers the closest elevated views of the Dome, Peace Memorial Park and the surrounding city, with Miyajima and the Chugoku mountains visible on clear days.


The rooftop deck, Hiroshima Hills, is open-air and unglazed, with wooden decking and seating. Below it, visitors can fold a paper crane and add it to the Orizuru Wall — a glass shaft running down the building's façade that is gradually filled with cranes from visitors worldwide, echoing Hiroshima's enduring symbol of peace. A spiral wooden ramp connects the upper floors to street level, offering changing views of the city on the descent.

11:30 AM

UNESCO Site | Peace Memorial Park & Museum

Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park stands near the hypocenter of the atomic bombing and serves as a place of remembrance and reflection. The park is home to several significant monuments, including the Atomic Bomb Dome, the Cenotaph for the A-bomb Victims, and the Children's Peace Monument.


Located within the park, the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum presents the events of August 6, 1945, through personal stories, artifacts, and historical exhibits. Together, the park and museum convey Hiroshima's message of peace and the importance of a world free from nuclear weapons.


Today, the park remains one of Hiroshima's most visited and meaningful sites, welcoming people from around the world to learn, reflect, and remember.

Wonderful and meaningful Hiroshima experience!

We had an absolutely wonderful tour in Hiroshima with Kate. From picking us up at our hotel until bringing us back, everything was perfectly taken care of. In her calm, warm and personal way, Kate introduced our family to the impactful history of Hiroshima, while also sharing its powerful message of hope and peace. She is very knowledgeable, but what made the experience truly special was her genuine warmth and the personal conversations we had throughout the day. We feel very grateful that we could experience Hiroshima together as a family, and Kate made our visit even more meaningful and memorable. We wholeheartedly recommend Kate to anyone visiting Hiroshima. An exceptional guide and, above all, a very warm person.

Thank you so much for your kind words, Hans! I'm so glad you and your family enjoyed your time in Hiroshima. I'm also so happy we got to share different cultures, experiences, and life stories along the way. Those conversations meant a lot to me too. Although it was only 4 short hours, I'm so glad to have met you and your wonderful family. I wish you all safe travels this week to Tokyo and back home, and please let me know anytime you're back in Hiroshima. I'd love to welcome you again! Kind regards, Kate
