Things to do in Hiroshima Prefectural Art Museum

Using the JR pass from Osaka to Hiroshima and then from Hiroshima to Kyoto was more than worth the price! Most importantly, it was convenient for our independent travel, saving us a lot on transportation costs.

beautiful garden highly recommend when traveling to Hiroshima

This was a really fun tour. Our tour guide Momiji did a great job. The website on Klook was not clear about what the company was unless you look through the tabs, but it is Japan panoramic tours. Good recommend this tour to anybody wanting to get some history on Hiroshima and Miyajima Beach.

Hiroshima Castle is steeped in history, and its internal exhibitions are fascinating. The reconstructed castle exhibits are extensive, historically grand, and well worth a visit.

If you want to enter during the early bird hours, you must purchase a ticket in advance. That's why I bought my ticket on Klook beforehand. When entering, I simply showed the QR code, which was very convenient.

Even after purchasing tickets on Klook, you still need to redeem physical tickets at the entrance. Although the building closes at 6:00 PM, you can get a stamp on your hand and re-enter later when the rooftop bar opens to see the sunset from the top floor – it's absolutely stunning!

The Miyajima tour was a peaceful and scenic experience, and I really enjoyed it. The highlight was visiting the iconic floating torii gate of Itsukushima Shrine—absolutely stunning, especially during high tide. We also explored the charming island streets and tried local snacks like grilled oysters and momiji manju. Our tour guide RINO is the best! she’s super energetic and cheerful, which made the experience even more memorable. The relaxed atmosphere, friendly deer, and beautiful views made it a truly worthwhile trip.
