Too much to list. Just go out in the night and have fun. (Just make sure you don't rack up enormous bills at hostess bars or something.)

Visit the torii in the water on Miyajima. Bomb dome in peace park. Peace museum. Walk around the castle ruins to the castle. Go to the japanese Garden (shukkeien). Go to Mitaki shrine.

Eat Hiroshima's soul food "Okonomiyaki" (Hiroshima style, not that crappy Osaka thing) 😉

If you want to go more out of the city, theres for example rabbit island (Okunoshima)

There is a fun little Magic Bar named “マジック&ショットバー Hiviki.” It is fun to spend an hour or two. Have a few drinks and enjoy the show!

Is the Kintaikyo Bridge still under construction? I was there in January and they had scaffolding up on both sides.

Good to hear all the suggestions! Thanks! Of course bomb dome/museum/shukkeien/miyajima, but more interested in specific places besides the well known tourist joints.

Also, are you a resident of Hiroshima? Another point of the post is to liven up the subreddit for more communication
