Four hours from Tokyo on the Nozomi super express Shinkasen and you arrive in Hiroshima. What can be said about Hiroshima? The A-bomb dome, children’s monument and flame of peace all stand as sombre reminders of the almost 140,000 who died as a result ofthe atomic bombing in August 1945. The city also has the iconic castle and several spectacular gardens including the Shukkei garden.
