Streetcar "HIRODEN", runs freely throughout the city of Hiroshima

Hiroshima city itself is also known as a city of running-train museum.

Even at the time right after the bomb was dropped in 1945, the streetcar “HIRODEN” kept running to carry citizens, and for now, it is loved by the local people as our main transportation to and from work, school, and shops. Of course, it is a very convenient vehicle for the travelers, as well.

In the suburbs of Hiroshima city, there are also some onsen. Speaking of the hot springs that you can enjoy while viewing the sacred island of God "Miyajima", are Miyahama Onsen. (In some facilities depending on the orientation of the building, it is incapable to see Miyajima while soaking in the onsen, so please refer to the information linked for each facility.)
