Subjects : The most evocative place is undoubtedly the memorial of peace, a huge memorial park where the memory of the 1945 nuclear tragedy is still palpable. The park houses, besides the Bomba Museum, the famous A-Bomb Dome, or the remains of the palace Which hosted the Hiroshima Prefecture commercial fair. It is one of the few buildings left behind after the bomb blast and is now part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. Also interesting is the castle of Hiroshima, sometimes called the carp castle, consisting of five floors. The gardens, within which there is a sanctuary, are surrounded by a characteristic moat. Finally, half an hour by ferry you can reach Miyajima and visit the famous park with the famous Floating Bulls.

Recommended equipment : An all-round zoom is perfect. It is not essential to use the wide angle
