Built right next to the Atomic Bomb Dome, this is a new landmark where you can experience Hiroshima's "past, present, and future." The top-floor observation deck, "Hiroshima Hill," is an open space with a wooden deck offering a panoramic view of the Peace Memorial Park and Hiroshima city. Inside the tower, the "Orizuru Wall" experience, where you fold paper cranes with prayers for peace and drop them into a giant glass wall, is popular. The sight of the dropped cranes piling up symbolizes the accumulation of prayers from people all over the world. A sophisticated cafe and a product hall with Hiroshima specialties are also attached, making it a stylish tourist spot where you can think about peace and feel hope for the future.
