Kure, located in southwestern Hiroshima Prefecture, is a port city with stunning panoramic ocean views. It is home to Alley Karasu Kojima, the only place in Japan where you can see destroyers and submarines up close, and the Kure Maritime Museum, which houses a 1/10 scale model of the battleship Yamato. In the evening, enjoy delicious food and hang out with the locals in Kure’s food-stall street.
