On our trip we visited the Hiroshima Peace Memorial and some of the park. Unfortunately during our visit there was a heat wave so temperatures were in excess of 35C which meant we did not see much of the park or the dome. We were only there one day as well so could not revisit early when it was cooler.
The Museum was thankfully air conditioned.
It goes into great detail about the how and why the bomb was dropped. It then explains about the effects on Hiroshima (there is little detail of the Nakasaki bombing here incidentally) and its people. The museum features many artifacts from the devastated city to show its effects from physical damage, radiation and the psychological effects.
Entrance is ¥50
