Origami and Peace Walk Offer a Meaningful Cultural Experience in Hiroshima


Discover the beauty of Japanese tradition through a peaceful cultural experience centered on the timeless art of origami. Guests begin by learning how to fold a paper crane, one of Japan’s most meaningful symbols, under gentle guidance. As each fold takes shape, participants gain insight into the crane’s enduring association with hope, peace, and perseverance, transforming a simple sheet of paper into a heartfelt expression of remembrance.


The hands-on workshop provides a calm and reflective atmosphere, encouraging focus and creativity while introducing an important aspect of Japanese culture. Beyond the folding techniques, visitors learn about the history and symbolism of origami, making the experience both artistic and culturally enriching.


After completing their paper crane, guests embark on a leisurely guided walk through the streets of Hiroshima. Along the route, the guide shares stories about the surrounding neighborhood, local life, and hidden shops, offering an authentic glimpse into the city beyond its famous landmarks. These insights create a deeper connection with Hiroshima’s vibrant community and everyday culture.


The experience concludes at the Children's Peace Monument, where participants place their handmade crane alongside thousands of others sent from around the world as symbols of peace and hope. Combining traditional art, local storytelling, and meaningful reflection, this journey offers a memorable introduction to Hiroshima’s culture and its enduring message of peace.

This is a good place to see Hiroshima from the top deck. Grab a drink and enjoy strolling around seeing nearby peace dome and parks. Nice view of street down below. Great for kids , especially the slide to come to down. I think one can easily spend up to 2 hours there. They might be open late during warmer months, so it is a good place to visit after going to the museums in this area.

I really enjoyed this experience! Though the fee is a little more expensive than many other attractions/sightseeing spots in Japan, I spent more time here than I thought I would. Really enjoyed the open air view up top, as well as all the artwork visible on the way down. The slide is fun, if a little humbling when it flattens out. The staff were so friendly - chatting with me, helping my terrible origami and offering to take photos. Really made me feel welcome :) thank you!

This was a lovely experience. I had the opportunity to learn about the history of origami and received support to make my pieces. After exploring and learning about the peace park and museum this was a great way to finish off the day.
