Key Information
Description
As you may know, there are two world heritage sites in Hiroshima: Genbaku Dome (A-Bomb Dome, Hiroshima Peace Memorial) and Itsukushima-jinja Shrine in Miyajima. Genbaku Dome is the most symbolic building in Hiroshima, where the first atomic bomb exploded on August 6, 1945. It is a must-visit to be visited at least once, and a symbol for the motto "No More Hiroshimas." The present Itsukushima-jinja Shrine was constructed around 1168 by Taira no Kiyomori. Its shining red torii gate, the site's most recognizable landmark, appears to float in the water. We offer the one-day tour to take you to these two sites efficiently. Board the exclusively designed Maple Trip Bus. Maple leaves are called 'momiji' in Japanese and have long been a symbol of Hiroshima. The Maple Trip Bus will take you around Hiroshima City. You'll also enjoy a ferry ride to and from Itsukushima-jinja Shrine, during which you can catch stunning views of the Seto Inland Sea. The tour includes a unique Hiroshima Musubi Musashi box lunch!
