Roundtrip Train Ticket

Hi everyone,

I bought a roundtrip plane ticket from Honolulu to Osaka from April 27 to May 6, and I would like to know how much a roundtrip train ticket from Osaka to Hiroshima costs. I want to visit the Peace Memorial Park where the A-Bomb Dome is located. Can someone give me directions on how to get to the park from the nearest train station in Hiroshima? Is it possible to visit the site in a day trip, or would I need at least two days to enjoy the area (in order words, I should stay the night in Hiroshima)? Thanks!

For just the peace park one day is enough. But if you also want to visit Miyajima, then I recommend two days, although it is also possible to pack it into a single day if you travel at a quick pace.

There are no discounts on round trip train tickets between Osaka and Hiroshima compared to buying two single tickets.

KIX - Hiroshima - Osaka costs 22000yen.
JR west pass is 20000yen
