Hiroshima Castle was built by Mori Terumoto.

It is said that when it was first completed, it was comparable in size to Osaka Castle, and is known as one of the most representative castles of the early modern period, along with Osaka Castle and Okayama Castle.

The castle tower, which collapsed during the war, was rebuilt in 1958 (Showa 33) to coincide with the Hiroshima Reconstruction Exposition.

The Hirayagura, Tamonyagura, Taikoyagura, and Omote-mikado in Ninomaru were also rebuilt during the renovation work that began in 1989 (Heisei 1), and you can visit the inside.
The beauty of the castle tower seen through the moat is exceptional.
