Have you ever been to Hiroshima?
You may think “sometime I want to visit Hiroshima, but want to go first Tokyo, Kyoto or Osaka”.
In recent years, Hiroshima become a popular destination for foreign tourists. In fact, 2.4 million tourists visited this area last year.

In Hiroshima, there are two World Heritage Sites, Itsukushima Shrine on Miyajima and the Hiroshima Peace Memorial known as the Atomic Bomb Dome(in Japanese it’s called “原爆ドーム”).

And Hiroshima has the biggest downtown in the Chugoku and Shikoku region, Nagarekawa area with hundreds of bars, restaurants and spot for nightlife.
In Nagarekawa there also have many unique signboard and townscape.

If you search for #Nagarekawa at Instagram or Twitter, you may found several posts which tourists update between their trip.
Nagarekaya is popular with those who know about it because this area is quite
Instagrammable sights especially during night.

Most of sign are liquar company’s one, for example whisky, beer or shochu.
At night, those signboard become neon-lit!
