Hiroshima Castle, also known as Carp Castle, is a historic landmark in Hiroshima, Japan. Originally constructed in the 1590s by Mori Terumoto, it was an important seat of power in the Chugoku region. Unfortunately, the castle was destroyed by the atomic bomb in 1945 during World War II. It has since been reconstructed and now serves as a museum of Hiroshima's history before World War II. The castle's main keep features an impressive five stories, and although it's a replica, it offers an authentic feudal-era appearance. Surrounded by a moat and a serene park with cherry blossoms, the castle grounds provide a peaceful retreat and a stark contrast to the bustling city. Visitors can enjoy exhibits displaying samurai culture, armors, swords, and learn about the castle's history. The panoramic view of the city from the top is breathtaking and gives one a sense of the historical significance of this site. Hiroshima Castle is a symbol of the city's resilience and rebirth.
