Hiroshima is an industrial city of wide boulevards, criss-crossing rivers and a dense city center. It is located along the coast of the Seto Inland Sea in the western Chugoku region of Japan. Although many only know it for the horrific split second on August 6, 1945, when it became the site of the world\'s first atomic bomb attack, it is now a modern, cosmopolitan city with a lot of great food and nightlife.
