A wall of paper cranes piled up with visitors' "wishes" Two World Heritage sites can be seen from the rooftop observation deck
Located to the east of the World Heritage Site "Atomic Bomb Dome," this facility allows visitors to feel the weight and hope for peace through the transition of the cityscape from before the bombing to after the bombing to the present day. From the wooden deck rooftop observation deck, visitors can see two World Heritage sites in Hiroshima at the same time: Peace Memorial Park, the Atomic Bomb Dome, and, on a clear day, Mount Misen on Miyajima. In addition, visitors can throw paper cranes made with origami paper exclusive to the Orizuru Tower into the "Orizuru Wall," the symbol of the Orizuru Tower. Why not join in and make the "Orizuru Wall" complete with thoughts and prayers for peace from all over the world? There is also a souvenir shop with a selection of locally loved souvenirs, and a cafe where you can enjoy homemade drinks and sweets made mainly from fruits from Hiroshima, making it a great place to take a break.
