For the last stop on my business trip, a colleague took me to Din Tai Fung on the sixth floor of Minamoa. Xiao long bao really are an absolute favorite among Japanese people—I honestly haven’t met anyone who doesn’t love them (laughs). One small bite, with thin wrappers and plenty of soup, melted away the entire day’s fatigue. Thanks to the yen’s recent weakness, eating a taste of home abroad didn’t feel expensive at all, and it actually worked out to be quite affordable. Ending this business trip perfectly with familiar flavors was so comforting!

On March 24, 2025, this large-scale commercial complex directly connected to Hiroshima Station opened on the former site of ASSE, the old station building that closed about five years earlier. Alongside the existing in-station facility ekie, the new station building minamoa has joined Hiroshima Station, bringing together around 220 shops across ten floors, from basement level 1 to the 9th floor above ground.
Inside, visitors will find a carefully curated lineup of lifestyle goods, cosmetics, and sweets, including more than 60 brands making their first appearance in the Chugoku-Shikoku region. Built around the key concept of an “all-café” building, cafés are located on every floor, creating spaces where everyone can relax and spend time in their own way. Highlights include a soaring atrium, minamoa DINING-one of the largest dining floors in the Chugoku-Shikoku area, lined with well-known eateries-the MOVIX Hiroshima Station cinema complex, and the greenery-filled rooftop Soramore Plaza.
In addition, floors 7 through 21 on the west side house Hotel Granvia Hiroshima South Gate, offering 380 guest rooms. From shopping and dining to accommodation, everything can be enjoyed within a single building, making it a new landmark for Hiroshima.

I came here for dinner after a day of sightseeing in Hiroshima. When in Hiroshima, it’s gotta be okonomiyaki!
A lot of the restaurants were packed, so I was glad we got in with just a short wait!
