A Day of Art & Reflection in Hiroshima

#cityplaybook Hiroshima is a city where the past and present beautifully intertwine. It’s a place that gently invites you to learn, reflect, and discover. I started the day at the Hiroshima MOCA—the city’s modern art museum tucked into Hijiyama Park. The architecture itself is striking, and the museum’s peaceful surroundings made it the perfect start to the day. To get around, I hopped on Hiroshima’s iconic streetcars. They’re not just practical—they also add a charming retro vibe to the city experience. Of course, a visit to the Atomic Bomb Dome was essential. Standing there in silence, it’s impossible not to feel the weight of history—and the hope that followed. Why I recommend Hiroshima: ・You can explore both meaningful history and inspiring contemporary art ・The city’s relaxed pace and scenic streetcars make getting around easy and enjoyable 📍Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan #hiroshima #hiroshimamoca #atomicbombdome #streetcarviews #artandhistory #peacecity #japantravel #cityplaybook #reflectandwander
