Hiroshima is a very nice city, small enough in scale not to overwhelm, but with most of the amenities of a bigger city. Lots of lovely trees.

Can visit most tourist areas in a day trip. Most of the interesting parts of the area are further south, or on the island next to Hiroshima. If visiting again, would do one day in city center one day in south.
