About
West of Okayama is Hiroshima Prefecture, home to the city of the same name. Here one can find the Peace Memorial Park and Museum, sites that serve as powerful reminders of the tragedy or war and the universal need for peace and reconciliation. In addition to its historical significance, Hiroshima is famous for its culinary specialty, okonomiyaki—a savory pancake filled with a variety of ingredients such as meat, seafood, vegetables, and a delicious sauce. Just a short trip from Hiroshima City, Miyajima Island is another must-visit destination, celebrated for the iconic Itsukushima Shrine, with its floating torii gate that appears to hover above the water at high tide. Together, Hiroshima Prefecture’s blend of historical landmarks, distinctive cuisine, and scenic attractions creates a rich and engaging experience.
