Explore Hiroshima in 3.5 hours in a small group. Explore Peace Park and the Dome, hear stories from survivors, and visit the Peace Memorial Museum at your leisure, with admission included.
## Discover Hiroshima through its history and the stories of its survivors
We invite you to enjoy an intimate and respectful experience in Hiroshima, in a small group of 3 to 10 participants and accompanied by a Spanish-speaking local guide.
Throughout our tour, we will learn about the events of August 6, 1945, the stories of those who survived the atomic bomb, and how Hiroshima managed to rebuild itself into the city we know today.
**Our experience begins at the Peace Memorial Park**, where we'll learn about the history of the Atomic Bomb Dome (*Genbaku Dome*), one of Hiroshima's most recognizable symbols and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
During the walk, we'll share stories and testimonies from the survivors, known as *hibakusha*. Their experiences will help us understand the human dimension of the tragedy and the message of peace that Hiroshima conveys to the world.
We will also visit **Hiroshima Gate Park**, a space that reflects Hiroshima's urban transformation and will allow us to discover a different side to the city, beyond its past.
On the way back to Peace Park, we'll stop at some of its most significant monuments:
- **Children's Peace Monument:** We'll learn about the story of Sadako Sasaki and the meaning of the thousand paper cranes.
- **Cenotaph for the Victims:** We'll learn about its symbolism and the tribute it pays to those who lost their lives.
- **Flame of Peace:** We'll talk about its meaning and Hiroshima's commitment to the abolition of nuclear weapons.
During the tour, we'll also see the historic **Rest House**, one of the buildings that survived the bombing. There, we'll talk about the meaning of paper cranes (*orizuru*) and their connection to Hiroshima's history and its message of peace.
**Finally, you'll receive your admission ticket to the Peace Memorial Museum, included in the activity price.** You can explore it at your own pace and delve deeper into the stories and events that we have shared during our guided visit.
Before we say goodbye, we'll also be happy to offer you local recommendations so that you can continue to explore Hiroshima, its hidden gems, its cuisine, and other places of interest.
An experience in Spanish, designed for those who want to understand not only what happened in Hiroshima, but also how its inhabitants rebuilt the city and keep its message of peace alive.
