Hiroshima, Japan – A City Reborn from Tragedy
Hi everyone! In this video, I visit Hiroshima, a city forever marked by history. On 6 August 1945, the Enola Gay dropped the first-ever nuclear weapon, Little Boy, devastating Hiroshima. But today, it stands as a symbol of resilience, peace, and rebirth.

✅ Explore Hiroshima’s tragic past and hopeful present
✅ Experience the city’s modern life, culture, and hidden gems
✅ Visit iconic landmarks like the A-Bomb Dome & Peace Memorial Park
✅ Reflect on the lessons we can learn from Hiroshima’s remarkable recovery
📍 What to Expect in This Video:
(i) Start at the Hiroshima sign near Enkobashi Bridge, sharing my first impressions & comparisons with Tokyo.
(ii) Walk through the city, noticing historical markers, art, and daily life.
(iii) Coffee break at 7-Eleven ☕ – realising I walked in circles!
(iv) Tour my hotel & breakfast – insights into staying in Hiroshima.
(v) Visit Peace Memorial Park & A-Bomb Dome, discussing their significance.

Willie Briljante Video! Hiroshima met sy geskiedenis hoogs intressant! Goed gedoen. Groete!
May this remarkable historic city be blessed.
Wow, ek was verbaas om te hoor dat daar skaars 1.4 miljoen mense in Hiroshima is! Is dit die syfer wat hulle by toeriste inligting gee? Dis nie eers 'n derde van Kaapstad se bevolking nie! Volgens die "macrotrends" webwerf is die 2025 metro bevolking daar 2 058 000, wat minder as 2024 is. Die "Hiroshima Peace Gardens" in Kaapstad is die naaste wat ek nog aan Hiroshima gekom het, maar ek onthou wel van my verblyf in Tokyo dat ons destyds nie toegelaat was om op straat te eet of drink nie. Dis hoekom daar ook nie askanne op die sypaadjies is nie. Jammer dat hulle mens verbied om binne daai kasteel videos te maak nie, maar dis goed om te sien hoe dit van buite lyk! Sien uit na jou volgende video daar in Japan!
Crazy to think what happened…
Completely a different world, wow! The war is very sad to learn about but it was very nice to see the history through your video. Thank you and amazing video like always, Willie. 😘❤🙏🏻👏👏👌👍
Very interesting thank you. The castle was great.
