3 Days in Hiroshima for Solo Travelers

A thoughtful three-day Hiroshima solo itinerary combining Peace Memorial Park, Hiroshima Castle, Miyajima’s floating torii, island walks, and okonomiyaki counters. It is paced for independent travelers who want room for reflection, simple tram and ferry moves, and safe evening food streets rather than a rushed day-trip checklist.
