This train, which is only allowed for one season in the spring and early summer of 2026, allows you to experience the changing seasons up close on the road connecting Hiroshima, Miyajima, and Iwakuni.

Take a break from your daily life while admiring the mysterious scenery of Itsukushima Shrine and the serene atmosphere of Kintai Bridge flowing outside the window. Record the romance of an unforgettable railway trip with Hana Akari, which is not just a means to get to your destination, but a perfect trip in itself.
 

A special voyage allowed only this season

Hana Akari, which operates only on weekends and holidays from March 20 to June 28, 2026, adds value to a rare trip. From the city center of Hiroshima to the historical scenery of Iwakuni, you can enjoy the beauty of western Japan that changes from moment to moment while traveling by train.

Hiroshima's tradition fills your mouth, welcome dessert

All passengers will be offered the signature menu of 'Yamadaya', a long-established store in Miyajima with a 90-year tradition. Enjoy a sweet tea time with 'Momiji Manju', a maple leaf-shaped Hiroshima symbol, and 'Toyoka', which has a chewy and deep taste. A bite while watching the glittering sunlight of the Seto Inland Sea flowing outside the train window further enhances the excitement of the trip.

Memories of 2026 to keep at your fingertips

A special benefit awaits those who use Hana Akari this season. The 'Special Edition Stand', designed exclusively for 2026, will be the finest trophy of this trip. In addition, the 'Boarding Commemorative Certificate', which is completed by stamping the original design stamp placed in the train, is the most emotional way to record your own travel trajectory.

The soul of Japan meets in the train, Hiroshima Kagura

The interior of Car 2 transforms from a simple moving space into a small gallery. Hiroshima's traditional art, 'Hiroshima Kagura', is on display, allowing you to get up close and personal with the myths and history of Japan contained in gorgeous costumes and masks. Enjoy the cultural richness of a railway trip while admiring the works of art that convey the deep breath of the region.
