Hiroshima Prefecture, which belongs to the southern part of the Chugoku Region, is broadly classified into three areas: the Hiroshima Area, the Bingo Area, and the Bihoku Area. Since the coastal areas are located south of the Chugoku Mountains, the prefecture has a pleasant Seto Inland Sea-style climate with mild weather and little rainfall. There are many sightseeing spots in Hiroshima, such as Itsukushima Shrine with its majestic torii gate standing in the Seto Inland Sea, Tomonoura, where visitors can enjoy the streets of the Edo period, and the Atomic Bomb Dome, registered as a World Heritage site for the horror of the atomic bombing and for the hope of lasting peace. Oysters are so famous in Hiroshima Prefecture that the prefecture boasts the largest production in Japan, thanks to the ideal environment for oyster cultivation, which is characterized by their plump, nutritious meat. In addition to oysters, Hiroshima's savory Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki and momiji manju (steamed buns with a maple leaf design), the prefecture's flower, are very popular and have been loved by many people for centuries. Hiroshima Prefecture is a diverse prefecture with a variety of attractions, such as the agriculture, forestry, and fishery industries that have developed by taking advantage of the blessed natural environment, the manufacturing industry including Mazda, and the Hiroshima Carp.
