Things to do in Hiroshima, Chugoku: The Best Bridges
May 21, 2021 Marlin Saiz
A trip to Hiroshima is best kicked off with a visit to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, which contains a museum, the remnants of buildings destroyed by the 1945 atomic bomb and monuments to the people killed by this nuclear attack. Understanding Hiroshima’s relatively recent devastation is key to fully appreciating its beauty and culture. Visit splendidly rebuilt historic sites like Hiroshima Castle and Shukkei-en Garden, and don’t miss the Itsukushima Shrine on the nearby island of Miyajima.

Bridge T-shaped so easy to view from the air, which is why US chose it as a target. Well maintained, easy to cross.
