Overview

Enjoy a relaxing and unforgettable day exploring Hiroshima’s very own “Little Kyoto” and interacting with the cute rabbits of Ōkunoshima. Immerse yourself in the past and take a stroll through history and time by joining this 1-day tour in Takehara. Located within Hiroshima prefecture, Takehara is a charming and beautiful city on the coast of the Seto Inland Sea.
