What to know
Fukuyama (福山) is the second most populous city in Hiroshima Prefecture, after Hiroshima City. It lies at the eastern edge of the prefecture, midway along the Seto Inland Sea coast, not far from Onomichi.
Fukuyama's city center is a few kilometers inland, centered around Fukuyama Station, which is right next to Fukuyama Castle. Heading south toward the water, visitors will find the charming port town of Tomonoura and the unique Shinshoji Temple.
