Hi,

You have the peace memorial park with its memorials , the A-dome building and the Museum

Hiroshima is about 50 mins from the Itsukishima shrine ( with its red torii gate in the ocean) on Miyajima island ( cruise boat from the pier close to the A-dome building)
The shukkeien garden is beautiful
Hiroshima Castle is interesting
Hiroshima is worth spending a few days as it is a good base for
Iwakuni
Kure
Also a night time visit to the peace park and the a dome building is worthwhile as it is a different experience with the building illuminated at night
However for just a day the peace park etc is worthwhile
although it would be a long day from osaka
Regards

TBS
