Hiroshima Peace Park Guided Walk
Overview
As a local guide, I will share historical facts, personal stories, and reflections to help you better understand the impact of the atomic bombing and the resilience of Hiroshima’s people. This is more than a history tour — it’s a human experience that invites connection and peace.

This activity includes:
- Hiroshima Victims Memorial Cenotaph
- Children's Peace Monument
- Peace Memorial Park - Hiroshima
- Cenotaph erected by volunteers of former executives and employees of Hiroshima Prefecture Chiho Lumb
