Perfect for families who love nature, wildlife, food & dining.
A moving city of peace beside the beautiful island of Miyajima — meaningful history for older children, paired with wandering deer and a shrine that floats on the sea.
What makes this a standout family trip.




Kids and teenagers will love Hiroshima’s mix of family attractions, dining and days out.

Nearby Miyajima Island has a giant "floating" torii gate that appears to stand on the sea at high tide.
Very safe. The Peace Memorial Museum is moving and can be intense for young children — preview and pace it. Tame deer roam Miyajima too.

Spring and autumn; pair the Peace Memorial with a Miyajima day trip.
