The A bomb dome. The first use of atomic weapons occurred here, directly above this spot.
This is why it is still standing, all the pressure was channelled down and the walls of the building survived
As all the humans in the building were instantly killed. Yet what is even sadder is the lasting damage of radiation damage which would go onto kill thousands more
This is the story of the thousand paper cranes for a little girl wishing for more. A very sad story
And the park surrounding the site
The peace memorial with the eternal flame in the distance. It will keep burning until the last nuclear weapon is destroyed. Something to hope for.
