The Hiroshima Children's Museum, set in the central park near the memorial sites, is a free science center aimed at young visitors and their families. Its hands-on exhibits invite children to experiment with mechanics, magnetism, sound, and light through games and interactive stations over several floors. A planetarium beneath the same roof projects the night sky and screens astronomy programs suited to children. Opened during postwar rebuilding, it reflects the city's emphasis on education and offers a lighthearted stop in the district.
