Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Hypocenter Monument
Historical landmark
👍👍 This is not in any guidebooks, there are no signs pointing to it, it’s on a busy side street, tucked up against a hospital. THE hospital that was obliterated during the blast and rebuilt in the exact spot.
This location is arguably the most important spot in Hiroshima as it pertains to the Atomic B...

Korean Atomic Bomb Victims Cenotaph
Stone carving
👍👍 솔직히 민족의식에 관한 담론 별로 안좋아하는데 여긴 안갈 수가 없었다. 한국인말고는 굳이굳이 오지 않는 외진 구석, 공원의 중앙부와는 매우 비교된다.
원폭 피해자 중 10퍼센트가 한국인이었다는 걸 처음 알았다. 생수를 놓는 추모 방식을 몰랐어서 내일 다시 와서 생수 한병 놓고 가야겠다.

👍👍 It is one of the most impressive facilities that you can tour for free.
If there is a special exhibition being held, we recommend that you visit the 3rd floor, 2nd floor, 1st floor, and the 1st basement floor. The architectural style of the time and traces of the atomic bomb remain.

Peace Pagoda
Buddhist temple
👍👍 An amazing shrine with a great view of Hiroshima. If you have a couple of hours (waiting for a train?) then try the walk from the Togoshu shrine- it is beautiful.
I started my walk from the Togoshu Shrine, up through the woods and passed many more hidden shrines. Its quite a big climb (bring water)...

Atomic Bomb Memorial Burial Mound
Historical landmark
👍 Bodies were scattered around this area, close to the hypocenter, and countless bodies, including those pulled from rivers, were carried and buried. In 1946 (Showa 21), a temporary memorial tower, temporary ossuary, and chapel were built with donations from citizens, and 10 years later, in 1955 (Show...

A-bombed Phoenix Trees
Historical landmark
👍👍 Beautiful transplanted trees from 1300m away which survived the A-bombing of Hiroshima on August 6th 1945. The only A-bombed trees I've seen with a visitor sign-in book & peace song. The trees show damage on the trunk & thankfully produce seeds each year which are shared with schools that have peace...

Former place of Kokutaiji Temple and Atago Pond
Historical landmark
👍👍 You can understand from the bridges that this is a pond. Few trees with a bite mentioning they survived the aug 45 bomb, symbolic to that no matter how cruel we humans are towards each other and this planet. This planet will be standing far after humans extinct.
