Step inside a one-of-a-kind wooden observation deck located at the top of the Hiroshima Orizuru Tower. The rooftop deck, also known as Hiroshima Hills, has become one of the best sightseeing spots in the city since its opening in 2016. Visitors are promised a unique experience as the platform is built using lumber like Japanese cypress and cedar and is enveloped in a thin mesh covering on all sides. Its soothing ambiance and the pleasant flow of breeze make it the ideal spot to take in all of the city’s breathtaking sights. This open-air deck was specially built to encapsulate the city’s hope for world peace.
On a clear day, visitors will be greeted with panoramic views of the city from atop the observation deck. You can look north to find the stunning Hiroshima Castle. Direct your gaze southwest to admire the island of Miyajima and its highest peak, Mt. Misen rising 535 meters above sea level. Another distinguished landmark situated within the park is the Atomic Bomb Dome, which can be seen in its entirety from here. As the only structure that stood tall among the ruins left behind by the atomic blast, it is easy to see why the structure has captivated people’s fascination. You will also be privy to an exclusive top view of the building from this position. All in all, the Hiroshima Orizuru rooftop deck is a great place to admire the serene beauty of this city and also reflect on the tragedy that changed the course of human history forever.
