Hondori
Hondori is Hiroshima's main covered shopping arcade, a pedestrian street lined with department stores, boutiques, and restaurants running through the city center. It's a convenient place to shop, eat, or simply pass through between Peace Memorial Park and other central sights.
It's not a specific historical or cultural attraction, but a useful practical stop for a meal (including Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki) or last-minute souvenirs.
