🇯🇵Japan's niche tour: Hiroshima two days and one night

If you are not satisfied with the ordinary tourist itineraries of Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto, then you must come to Hiroshima, you will be pleasantly surprised. Hiroshima, an industrial city that developed during Japan's Meiji Restoration, was already quite prosperous before the nuclear explosion. Let's talk about the places/experiences worth visiting in Hiroshima: Atomic Bomb Memorial Park⛲️: As the first city in the world to suffer an atomic bomb explosion, the nuclear explosion site has been listed as a World Cultural Heritage of UNESCO. The entire park and the Peace Memorial Hall are worth spending half a day to walk around. Itsukushima Shrine⛩️: As one of the most famous national treasure shrines in Japan, it has a history of more than a thousand years. Just looking at photos is definitely not as shocking as seeing it with your own eyes. The only beach in Otorii has different views depending on the tide. When I went there, it was low tide in the afternoon, so I could walk to the beach up close to see this huge torii. Electric railway: One of the few means of transportation that survived the nuclear explosion. Hiroshima's electric railway actually has a history of more than 100 years. Hiroshima is also one of the few large Japanese cities without a subway. The only way to travel is by tram + bus. It is recommended that you buy a daily pass on the bus and play for a whole day. Oyster Culture🦪: Thanks to the natural resources of the Seto Inland Sea, Hiroshima's oyster production is the highest in Japan. But I went there from May to August which is not the season for eating oysters, so the taste was not particularly good. However, if you come to Hiroshima, you must try Hiroshima yaki, which is filled with plump oysters and paired with beer to relieve the fatigue of the day, haha. It is recommended to eat at restaurants inside JR stations, which is more convenient.
