Tour guide in Hiroshima Miyuri F.

Hi, I am Miyu, a Nationally Licensed Guide Interpreter. I began my career as a tourist guide after working as a public servant for nearly four decades. I mainly guide tours to Hiroshima’s two UNESCO World Heritage Sites — the Atomic Bomb Dome (including Peace Park) and Miyajima Island. As a local government employee, I worked in a department supporting atomic bomb survivors for 12 years before my retirement, and I still keep in touch with some of them, so I am knowledgeable about A-bomb survivors, the reconstruction of Hiroshima, and the effects of radiation on the human body, which I can correctly convey to inbound visitors. I’m a passionate fan of my local baseball team. So I enjoy talking about baseball with guests from countries where it is popular. I am a volunteer medical interpreter and can support travelers in the event of sudden health problems. I hope you will enjoy discovering the many charms of Hiroshima. Not only the two World Heritage Sites, but also places such as Shukkeien Garden, a beautiful Japanese garden, and Mitaki Temple with its tranquil atmosphere. I am not a driver. I usually offer tours using public transportation.
