About this experience
A private tour — just your group and a Hiroshima-based guide. You set the pace, and you can ask anything.
Most Hiroshima tours cover the Peace Park, the Dome and the museum. You can do those on your own. This tour takes you where you can't go alone:
・A working elementary school, 460 m from the hypocenter, where survivors' chalk messages were found under the plaster after 54 years
・The bank that reopened two days after the bomb, and lent its own counters to ten other banks
・The hypocenter itself — outside a clinic still run by the grandson of the doctor who came back that night to treat the injured
・A stone that still carries the shadow of the statue standing in front of it
・A bakery built around a wall that survived the blast
The tree that came back the following spring, whose seeds are now planted overseas
By the end you'll have met about a dozen survivors of 6 August. Not all of them are people.
