Visiting HIROSHIMA Today: IS IT SAFE from RADIATION?!

Hiroshima today is a city transformed, but it's known for harrowing history. The Peace Memorial Park, Atomic Bomb Dome and Peace Memorial Museum are very important for everybody to experience… but I didn’t expect to find so much fun on my city tour. From tasty Okonomiyaki to craft breweries and rooftop bars. Hiroshima in 2019 is a really vibrant, modern place. But it also owns it’s history, presented best by the story of Sadako Sasaki. This is my Hiroshima travel video, that I hope captures my thoughts and feelings of the place. PLACES AND SIGHTS FEATURES IN THIS FILM: Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum - 0:40 Somewhere that everyone should visit in their lifetime. A poignant reflection on the bomb blast through interactive exits and artefacts. Atomic Bomb Dome (Genbaku Dome) - 1:00 The former Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall is one of the few ruins left standing from the blast. It is now a centrepiece of the peace park and a designated UNESCO World Heritage Site Peace Memorial Park - 1:19 A beautiful place to visit, dedicated to the victims of the bomb. Very peaceful with several museums, memorials and art installations. Hiroshima Trams - 1:37 The vintage trams have been a feature of the city since long before the bombing. They are still the best way to get around the city. Orizuru Tower Hiroshima - 1:43 The best rooftop bar and viewpoint I visited in Japan, located right next to the Atomic Bomb Dome. A beautiful and modern design with several floors and interactive exhibits. It’s a great place to come with kids to learn about the history and a great spot to drink and unwind. You can also get down the building through a series of slides - lots of fun! There is a ¥1000 JPY entrance fee for tourists. Okonomoyaki - 1:47 A savoury Japanese pancake and a native speciality dish of Hiroshima. Nagataya is a great restaurant to try it for the first time, but get there early - there’s always a queue! Miyajima Ferry - 2:07 ¥180 JPY for a one way trip, there is also a dedicated JR Line Ferry for anybody with a rail pass. Itsukushima Shrine - 2:15 One of the most famous Torii gates/shrines in Japan. Partially submerged by water at high tide. You can view it from the land or take a boat through it. Miyajima Brewery - 2:33 A great little stop for craft beer lovers on the Main Street on Miyajima island. Hiroshima Carps - 2:35 The loudest and proudest baseball fans in the country! They play at the Mazda Zoom-Zoom Stadium. You can buy tickets at the stadium box office or from 711, Family Mart and Lawson. Hiroshima Arcades - 2:48 There are a couple of Taito Stations in the city, which are good fun as always! Paper Crane Memorial - 4:12 At the Hiroshima Orizuru Tower, you can make your own paper cranes to drop into the memorial on the 10th floor. #HiroshimaToday #HiroshimaTravelVideo #HiroshimaCityTour WHERE I GET MY MUSIC (30 DAY FREE TRIAL): https://www.epidemicsound.com/referra...
