Hiroshima walking tour

It was a very pleasant tour. My guide knew exactly where to go and where to get good pictures and had a lot of information to share about each spot. Thanks to that I understood a lot mor significance of the things i saw. We did the tour in japanese so it was very good practise but she also spoke very good english if we ever hit a snag in our communication. Overall a fantastic walking tour.
