Hiroshima is a land where the calm waters of the Seto Inland Sea have long nurtured people’s lives and culture. Scattered across the Seto Inland Sea are more than a thousand islands. For centuries, ships crossed these waters, carrying people, goods, and ideas. Through these exchanges, distinctive port towns such as Onomichi, Tomonoura, and Mitarai developed their own unique histories and cultures. Along the islands of the Shimanami Kaido, ways of life shaped by the sea continue to thrive today.

On Miyajima, revered as the Island of the Gods, a deep respect for nature and a spirit of prayer remain woven into everyday life. Throughout Hiroshima, festivals, traditional crafts, and artisanal skills born from each region’s climate and history continue to be passed down through generations. Its celebrated food culture—oysters, citrus fruits, sake, and the abundant seafood of the Seto Inland Sea—is likewise a reflection of nature’s gifts and the wisdom cultivated by local communities over centuries.

Yet Hiroshima offers far more than its famous landmarks.
It is a place where people live in harmony with the sea and honor the natural world.
Where local festivals are preserved, and craftsmanship is entrusted to future generations.
Where the blessings of the land are shared through food and heartfelt hospitality.
And where people continue to face history with humility while praying for peace.
These enduring values reveal the spirit of Hiroshima—a spirit that has been carefully carried forward through changing times.
