Hiroshima Drive 4K | Kure to Central Hiroshima, Japan
This drive takes you from Kure to Central Hiroshima.
Kure is famous as a maritime city, known for its deep connection to the naval industry and history. As you drive, you’ll see the numerous shipyards lining the bay.
There are two famous military museums located near the Kure Station: the JMSDF Kure Museum and the Yamato Museum (also known as the Kure Maritime Museum).
The JMSDF Kure Museum (also known as the “Iron Whale Museum”) features the submarine Akishio, which was in service until 2004.
You can even walk inside a part of the submarine.
The Yamato Museum is dedicated to the history of Kure’s naval port and its shipbuilding heritage. The highlight is a massive 1/10-scale model of the battleship Yamato, the largest battleship of World War II. It also exhibits the Suicide Torpedo Kaiten.
After leaving Kure, our journey continues along Route 31, following the beautiful coastline and heading towards Central Hiroshima City.
Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is located south of Genbaku Dome (Atomic Bomb Dome), which still remains at the nearly close to the epicenter of the atomic bomb explosion.
The Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum within the park tells the story of the city before and after the atomic bombing, and how it affected its citizens.

いつも楽しく拝見しています！広島在住の頃、頻繁にR31をドライブしてました！交通量多いんですけど、海沿いで夜のドライブは気持ちよかった思い出があります😀
I noticed all the women have an umbrella or hat. Smart.

Jaki sprzęt używasz? Pięknie
Fascinating mixture of heavy industry – steelworks, shipyards and enormous cranes 🏗 – against a gorgeously lush backdrop
11:45 And then you turn a corner and there's an enormous great submarine!!
30:00 Big old American car in what looks like a used car dealer's lot. In fact there's a whole collection, a Mustang and what looks like an old US Mail van
I love to watch your videos and then slowly falls asleep, thanks for these kind of videos❤
I guess you drive a Mazda.The turn signals and engine sound like Mazda CX5.
斜めに車線変更する時はウインカーをどっちに出せばいいんだ。
高校を卒業して20歳まで海上自衛官として呉市民でした。
バイクや車でこの道を幾度となく走ったものです🏍️💨
あの頃から変わったとこ、あの日のままの景色✨
すっごく懐かし気持ちで✨
また久しぶりに行ってみようかなって思ってます！愛車のcx-30に乗って。
昨日の様に思える道だけど 知らないうちに36年も経ってしまったな😅
素敵なDriving動画ありがとうございました✨👍
瀬戸内の青く澄んで穏やかな海が好きで、運転しないのでJRで海を見たくなったら呉まで往復します。
こんかいは車でどんな光景が見えるか楽しみです、運転よろしく！
楽しかった！有り難うございました！吉浦過ぎて左手奥の海上にG7会場になったホテルも見えました。😊
I would love to visit Japan someday. 😊
広島市内の交通マナーって、あまり良いとは言えないよな～～。
