From elephants to chimpanzees, forests are home to some amazing creatures. While we can't promise you'll see those animals at Hiroshima City Forestry Park, you'll have fun spotting the wildlife that does live here.

If you want free activities and attractions to put on your Higashi Ward schedule, Hiroshima City Forestry Park is a fine place to start. But this dense growth of trees is just one of a myriad of sights that attract visitors to this riverside ward. Make tracks to nearby Hiroshima Castle, Hiroshima Museum of Art and Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art to cap off your day of sightseeing.
