Descripción
Explore Hiroshima Castle and the Shukkeien Garden with a local guide, uncovering the stories behind historic walls, bridges, islands, and tranquil views.
Slow down and discover a calmer side of Hiroshima on a guided walk from Hiroshima Station. Travel with a local guide to Hiroshima Castle, also known as the Carp Castle, and explore the moat and old stone walls from the outside. Learn how the castle town developed into the city of today and hear about the events of 1945. The main tower is currently closed to visitors, but its exterior and surviving surroundings still reveal the site’s history.
Continue on foot to Shukkeien, a villa garden created in 1620 for the Asano family. Its carefully designed pond landscape brings together miniature mountains, valleys, lakes, bridges, islands, and tea pavilions in one walkable setting. Your guide reveals the meanings woven into these details, helping you see the garden as its creators intended.
Damaged in 1945 and restored over the following decades, Shukkeien is now a peaceful retreat and a rewarding photo stop throughout the year. Enjoy seasonal cherry blossoms, summer greenery, or autumn leaves as you walk, listen, and take in the scenery. Admission tickets to Shukkeien Garden are included.
