Hiroshima 3-Hour Peace Walking Tour with a Local Guide Discount Tickets

Overview

A small-group walking tour with a Hiroshima-based guide. Never more than 10 people — not a bus tour. Most Hiroshima tours cover the Peace Park, the Dome and the museum. You can do those on your own. This tour takes you where you can't go alone: ・A working elementary school, 460 m from the hypocenter, where survivors' chalk messages were found under the plaster after 54 years ・The bank that reopened two days after the bomb, and lent its own counters to ten other banks ・The hypocenter itself — outside a clinic still run by the grandson of the doctor who came back that night to treat the injured ・A stone that still carries the shadow of the statue standing in front of it ・The tree that came back the following spring, whose seeds are now planted overseas etc.. About 3 hours on foot, in English. You'll walk it with a handful of travellers from other countries. By the end you'll have met about a dozen survivors of 6 August. Not all of them are people.
