The park is beautiful, peaceful, yet the horror and destruction of war is still visible. It's a well maintained place and visited by many tourists. It makes one feel bad to imagine the misery people have gone through, also appreciate how the city has grown from the debris. Must visit place for everyone.

In the heart of Hiroshima, where once unimaginable devastation unfolded, stands the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park—a testament to resilience, remembrance, and the enduring pursuit of peace. As I walked through its serene pathways, I felt a profound sense of somber reflection.
The park’s design is deliberate—a delicate balance of beauty and gravity. Cherry blossoms bloom alongside cenotaphs, their petals whispering stories of lives lost. The Atomic Bomb Dome, preserved in its haunting skeletal form, serves as a silent witness to the cataclysmic event that reshaped history.
Children’s Peace Monument, adorned with origami cranes, embodies hope born from tragedy. Each crane represents a wish for healing and a plea for a world free from nuclear horrors. Nearby, the Peace Flame burns eternally, a beacon urging us to extinguish hatred and embrace compassion.
Visitors pause at the Memorial Hall, where names of victims echo through time. Here, we confront the past, not with bitterness, but with a shared commitment to prevent such suffering again. The Cenotaph for A-bomb Victims frames the Atomic Bomb Dome, inviting us to honor those lost and vow to protect future generations.
In this park, sorrow and hope intertwine. It reminds us that even amidst darkness, humanity can rise, heal, and strive for a better world. Let us carry the spirit of Hiroshima—a plea for peace—beyond these hallowed grounds.

Very beautiful park a great place to brace yourself before you enter the museum or to collect yourself after you have left the museum. Everything is very tidy and kept neat. It is a very big area so even if there are a lot of people it doesn't feel very crowded. I saw some people jogging as well 🤷♂
There are various memorials around the park with small plaques explaining their meaning. The park is also pretty well connected to the surrounding area 👌👍

The silence walking around the museum said it all. Its very impressive and touching to real all the person stories and see the massive scale of human tragedy with one big blast. They showcase this in a beautiful way.

An eye-opener museum. How wars and weapons can affect nature and humans can be experienced. It's much more than NoMoreHiroshima and still relevant today, and a guide for our next generations. A must visit for everyone. The entire park is well curated, organized and informative. Gratitude for those who courageously shared their loved ones memories with us.

Another magnificent place close to the A-Bomb Dome. This is a memorial for the victims of the A-Bomb but also to remind us that we need to be kind to each other.
We spend so much energy in war, death, and destruction. Let us start putting all our energy in love and compassion. Let's make this world a place where we can all live together.

Definitely one of the most thought-provoking places I've visited. The park itself is very clean, neat and calming. The museum is obviously heartbreaking, but I think everyone who has the chance should visit. A very important place, and it's quite special seeing how the city rebuilt itself into such a welcoming and beautiful city.
Just beware of the crowds - if you show up to the museum later on in the day you may have a very long wait.
I would also recommend paying a visit to the Atomic Dome.

Bearing witness to the Peace Memorial Park in Hiroshima is a profound and humbling experience. The park stands as a powerful tribute to the lives lost during the tragic events of history. Amidst serene surroundings, the monuments and Peace Memorial Museum convey a poignant message of peace and resilience. Walking through the park, you can't help but feel a deep sense of reflection and hope for a future free from the horrors of war. It's a place that fosters understanding and serves as a timeless reminder of the importance of peace and humanity.

As many others, we came from Tokyo to Hiroshima, just to see this historical place, and it does not (if possible) disappoint. As you arrive at the peninsular that holds this complex of gardens, thousands of pink cherry trees, museum and historical, destroyed buildings, you know that this world heirtage is something to behold in awe, respect with you deepest feelings and understand for the future generations to come. Understand the message going out to the world that nuclear weapns is not the answer to world peace, and such drastical usage and complete wipeout of a population, is never the answer. PEACE!

Have a relaxing walk through the park, thinking how about 80 years ago everything around was destroyed by the atomic bomb. Pay a tribute to the numerous monuments remembering the different groups of victims. Hear the bell calling for peace in the world, look at the only surviving tree, visit the museum and memorial. This place is a must see for raising awareness about nuclear war. Make sure to get enough time.

It’s actually quite overwhelming coming to visit hiroshima.. when u already know the history behind it. And u see the actual preserved building, and thinking that was near to the bombing site. It’s crazy.. the park is huge and there are many memorial statues as well. The park is really clean and organized..

Learn a lot about Hiroshima's nuclear bomb disaster from the guide that accompanied us through the park tour. This park should be a reminder for us to maintain the world peace and avoid the armed conflicts. Hope all the impacted souls can rest in peace.

We did not set aside the appropriate amount of time to fully appreciate the entire park.
The day was very cool and windy and did not help since we didn't dress for the weather.
I absolutely intend on returning several times to be able to see all of the park.
Initially, upon arriving, I could tell parking was going to be an issue. We were fortunate enough to find a space in a lot very close. I imagine on a day with warmer weather parking, it will be very challenging.

A beautiful park dedicated not only to the memory of all the victims of the atomic bombing but also to educate the absolute horrors of nuclear warfare, and to advocate the importance for world peace. A peace memorial ceremony is held here every year on the 6th August.

One can’t help but be touched when visiting the museum. I’d say it’s a must see, however acknowledge it may be too difficult for some. The exhibits and grounds are well done. A big downside is the crowds. There are so many people it is difficult to fully appreciate and have time to reflect.

An amazing park with a lot of monuments to see. It also has the memorial hall and the museum of peace in it. If you go to Hiroshima this is a must visit place.

What could I say that has not been already said by any person that visited this impressive place and museum ?!
Perhaps could I mention that I just could not stop my tears from falling during the 3 hours I spent visiting this superb museum, a museum that was built and though so that humanity never forgets. An english friend of mine told me that it's a kind of duty to get there. I agree. In these times when destruction awaits us, where the atomic threat resurfaces, realizing what it really means to send nukes on other humans seems to me a good thing, especially for the younger generations who did not even know the Cold War .
The surrounding park, the memorials and the remainings from the bombing are places worth taking the time to visit. They are in addition very well included in the modern architecture of this wonderful town of Hiroshima.
Half a day is necessary to visit all places.

Hiroshima in itself is super chill!When we went to the Peace Memorial Park, there were students and tourists like us. The Museum was also quiet and good to visit to appreciate the history of this place.

A beautiful and touching park. There are several different memorials, with plaques offering descriptions in multiple languages for visitors from around the world. Be prepared that you may be moved to tears by the stories of loss and tragedy, but there are several benches all around the park if you need to take a minute and rest or reflect.

One of the beautiful places not only at Hiroshima but also entire Japan. There are two part, one Is peace memorial museum and another part is Atomic dome. There is deep silence in the place where you may hear the deep mourn of 1945 devastating nuclear bomb destruction.
