Hiroshima Flower Festival

A big festival called “Hiroshima Flower Festival” is held every year from May 3rd through May 5th in Hiroshima. In Japan, April 29th and May 3rd through 5th are national holidays, and many Japanese people combine the weekends before and after the national holidays together into one long vacation.  It is so-called "Golden week", during which variety of events are held over Japan. Due to the Covid-19 (coronavirus) in 2020, Flower Festival was canceled for the first time since 1977 when this festival started. This festival is completely different from the "Shinto" festival, the one of the Japanese religions. This is a festival where many people including locals enjoy the performances, foods, and drinks provided by the locals. During this festival, the main street called the Peace Boulevard, which across through downtown Hiroshima from east to west, is closed to traffic; instead, there are about 30 performance stages, local product exhibitions, and food/drink s...

Cycling the Tobishima Kaido

When you hear the words "Setouchi Cycling," all you imagine is the "Shimanami Kaido"? With many islands in the sea of Hiroshima as well as many bridges spanning them, the area is full of places suitable for cycling. Here, we would like to introduce the Tobishima Kaido (Tobishima Sea Route). The Tobishima Kaido can be accessed from Kure City, which is closer to Hiroshima City than Shimanami Kaido. The route includes seven bridges of various sizes connecting the mainland with seven islands, and the shortest distance is about 30 kilometers. Of course, it can be made shorter if you prefer. The name of "Tobishima" came from the "stepping stones", which you can find in Japanese gardens placed to adjust to people's stride for walking; it represents the islands scattered like stepping stones in the sea. One of the highlights of ...

Hiroshima is also called as the City of Water. Enjoy the river while feeling the nature in the historic area. [Water bikes, SUISUI]

Did you know that Hiroshima is also called as the City of Water? The well-known Atomic Bomb Dome is also located in the river delta. Six rivers flow through the city, and streetcars across many bridges as they run around between west and east. Since the time Hiroshima was grown as a city, the lives of the people in the area have been with the river. Therefore, we would like everyone, who visits Hiroshima for sightseeing, to get more familiar to Hiroshima by enjoying through the river that is inseparable to us. Here is one of the best ways to do so. Please try "Water Bikes, SUISUI". This water bike is not motorized; you move it forward by pedaling. The plan includes a river cruise of about 20 minutes. Enjoy a river cruise from Peace Memorial Park to the place where SUISUI is located first, then start water-biking. You can see people relaxing on the shore, or you can see beautiful cherry blossoms stand along the river, depending on the...
