Hiroshima Prefecture

Home to two World Heritage Sites: the Atomic Bomb Dome, which conveys the importance of peace, and Miyajima (Itsukushima Shrine), with its symbolic Torii gate floating in the sea. Island hopping, which involves touring the Seto Inland Sea by boat or bicycle around the beautiful islands of various sizes, and "Rabbit Island," where wild rabbits live, are also popular.
The natural landscape spreads out, combining cultural heritage and the outdoors.
