Castle sights in Hiroshima

  1. A

    Hiroshima-jō

    Also known as Carp Castle, Hiroshima-jō was originally constructed in 1589, but much of it was dismantled following the Meiji Restoration, leaving only the donjon, main gates and turrets. The remainder was totally destroyed by the A-bomb and rebuilt in modern reinforced concrete in 1958.

    Hiroshima-jō Castle

    Also known as Carp Castle (Rijō; 鯉城), Hiroshima-jō was originally constructed in 1589, but much of it was dismantled following the Meiji Restoration. The remainder was totally destroyed by the bomb and rebuilt in 1958. There's not a lot to see inside, but there's a moat, and the surrounding park is a pleasant place for a stroll.
