Activity itinerary

Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park
  • 20m
This is a unique historical walking tour that delves beyond the typical narrative. We contrast the Dome's public symbol with the site's untold reality, focusing on the human stories of sacrifice and survival. At the Fountain of Prayer, we listen to the profound stories of the thirst victims and the deep, life-long regret of the survivors who could not offer water. It represents not just thirst, but the tears of the living who endured the impossible choice.
The Cenotaph
  • 10m
This is the symbolic heart of the Peace Park. Here, we delve into the paradox of the eternal Flame of Peace, which remains lit until the last nuclear weapon is destroyed—a poignant reminder that the global mission for peace is not yet complete. We also honor the victims at the Cenotaph by reflecting on the inscriptions.
Atomic Bomb Dome
  • 20m
Witness the Dome, the single most powerful symbol of the atomic bombing. We discuss the historic controversy over its preservation—driven by a young girl's diary—and contrast its former beauty with its current skeleton form, emphasizing its role as a permanent, silent warning to humanity.
Shima Hospital
  • 5m
This is the exact hypocenter of the atomic bombing on August 6, 1945. The bomb detonated about 600 meters directly above this hospital.
Fukuromachi Elementary School Peace Museum
  • 20m
Explore the site of human resilience and desperate love. The main focus is the Message Wall, where we examine the desperate chalk messages left by survivors searching for family—the "SNS of 1945." We also cover the school’s use as a chaotic first-aid station immediately after the bombing.
Honkawa Peace Museum
  • 20m
We enter this A-bombed school, one of the closest surviving structures to the hypocenter. The focus is on the extreme heat: you will see melted glass and twisted distribution panels, physical evidence of the instantaneous destruction. We share the story of the lone survivor who was saved by being in the basement.
