Hiroshima is known as the site where the unfortunate atomic bombing of August 6, 1945 happened during World War II. Located in Chūgoku region of western Honshu Island, the city’s name Hiroshima is also the name of the prefecture it is located, which is Hiroshima Prefecture. As a kid, I learned in my history class in school about that tragic event that happened in Hiroshima. That is why, when we were planning our recent Japan trip, I made sure to include a visit to Hiroshima in our itinerary.
