Our accommodation for a night in this A-Bomb city is Hotel Gravia Hiroshima, a short distance from Shin Hiroshima.

Hiroshima is the principal city of the Chugoku Region and has over a million population.
When the first atomic bomb was dropped over Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, the city became known worldwide for the unenviable distinction. The destructive power of the bomb was tremendous and obliterated nearly everything within a 2 km radius. THIS IS THE REASON WE ARE HERE, to go back in history.
