Peace Park & museum tour
Take a sobering tour of Hiroshima's Peace Park with a volunteer from an NPO that provides support to A-bomb survivors.
InsideJapan are proud to work with a non-profit organisation set up to support Hiroshima's hibakusha A-bomb survivors and to educate overseas visitors about Hiroshima's legacy. We can arrange for a volunteer from the organisation to show you around Hiroshima's Peace Park and Museum on a three-hour tour. There may also be the opportunity to meet a survivor, but this cannot be guaranteed in advance as the hibakusha are now very elderly. Either way this is a fantastic chance to meet a Hiroshima resident and gain a deep insight into Japan's recent history from a local perspective.
