• My tours are filled with the history of my soul. Peace is my soul's true desire. Thanks to the bicycle, I found my path as a tour guide—and it's brought me nothing but joy. I hope our bicycle tour will help you find your own happiness. Let's go cycling! Ride a bike, feel the changes within you.

The Himeji Historical Peace Center is an institution by which we acknowledge the tragedy and the suffering that the Second World War caused, to educate future generations and teach them the great value of peace. In this place, they've restored a common house and cave which failed to protect the people from the attack. We can re-live the terrible experiences of the air attack using a display that reenacts the air attack with pictures, sound, vibrations and a diorama. However, Himeji Castle remained by the will of the people and god. We hope you can feel just how connected Himeji is to peace.
