Hiroshima Station is the main transit hub of Hiroshima. It services the city's buses, subways and streetcars as well as the Shinkansen bullet train. It is the basic starting point for those visiting the Atomic Bomb Dome. It was opened in 1894, but its original building was destroyed in the atomic bomb attack in 1945; it was rebuilt and reopened in 1965.
