This 17th-century miniature landscape garden was restored after its destruction in 1945, and contains a pond, streams, islets and bridges.
I love Hiroshima, there are always new attractions to explore. I saw Shukkei-en Garden on a map, and decided to check it out. It is not far from the main train station, so it is a must. I highly recommend adding this to your itinerary. The entrance was pretty cheap, around 260 yen a person. You need at minimum an hour here as there are trails and interesting historical markers worth reading, not to mention many photo spots and places to relax and enjoy the beauty. Japan seems to have varieties of flowers that bloom at different times of the year, so anytime is a good time to visit. The pond in the center is lovely and is full of beautiful koi fish among other species and lots of adorable turtles. These gardens are a must when visiting Hiroshima.

The Hiroshima Botanical Garden was established for the citizens in 1976 as a relaxing and educational place to expand their knowledge of plants. The garden is comprised of the main conservatory (2018 renewal), begonia displayhouse, fuchsia displayhouse, cactus displayhouse, phylogenical garden, rock garden, Japanese garden and camellia garden, utilizing the undulated land effectively. The garden makes an effort to collect and keeps about 10,000 species.
Gorgeous botanical garden with picturesque moutain/forest background, away from the city. The garden is quite big and features different types of plants, external gardens and greenhouses. I've visited many botanical gardens and I absolutely loved this one! Really stunning. I had brought my lunch, but there are facilities there where you can buy food and ice cream.
