Highlights

Kurahashi Island in Hiroshima Prefecture is a tranquil island in the Seto Inland Sea with several remarkable attractions, from breathtaking mountain vistas and hot springs to a world-renowned brand and Japan’s finest craftsmanship.

After descending the mountain, you drop into the natural hot spring by the seaside at Katsurahama to freshen up before lunch of regional specialties of the Seto Inland Sea. The afternoon is spent enjoying the island’s unexpected cultural treasures, visiting the F.H. Royce Museum with its remarkable collection of Rolls-Royces and Bentleys. The last stop of the day is Hayashi Shuzo, a sake brewery founded in the Edo period, which also houses a huge collection of kimono created by master craftsmen.

About Hiroshima

Hiroshima, on Japan's Seto Inland Sea, is a rebuilt river city whose Peace Memorial Park and museum recall the atomic bombing of 1945.

Hiroshima spreads across the delta of the Ōta River, whose channels, bridges and trams give the city an open feel. The atomic bomb of 6 August 1945 destroyed most of it. The Peace Memorial Park beside the river holds the Atomic Bomb Dome, a ruined building left standing and listed by UNESCO, the Peace Memorial Museum and the Children's Peace Monument.

Top-ranked sights in Hiroshima: Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum, Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, Miyajima Island (Itsukushima).
