Originally constructed in the 1590s, the Hiroshima castle was destroyed in the atomic bombing in 1945. It was rebuilt in 1958, a replica of the original which now serves as a museum of Hiroshima’s history .

Hiroshima Castle is a really big place to explore ( for its name : CASTLE ) and you can easily spent 2 hours exploring the place with a shrine inside and some traditions using wood .
