Higashi-ku, Administrative ward in Hiroshima, Japan.
Higashi-ku encompasses eastern sections of Hiroshima city, incorporating residential neighborhoods, commercial zones, municipal offices, and community facilities across its territory.
The ward emerged through Hiroshima's post-war administrative restructuring, forming part of the city's modern municipal organization system established after 1945.
The district maintains several community centers where residents participate in traditional Japanese activities, language exchange programs, and seasonal celebrations throughout the year.
The Higashi Ward Office at 9-38 Higashi-kaniya-cho provides essential administrative services to residents from Monday through Friday between 8:30 AM and 5:15 PM.
International residents receive specialized support through multilingual consultation services, including assistance with documentation in Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, Portuguese, English, and Filipino.
