Hi Muza-chan, thanks for your comment. Hiroshima is definitely a really cool place to visit. I first went to Japan in 2000 but did not get to Hiroshima until 2009. I don’t know what took me so long!

Very interesting article.
One of my Japanese friends recomended me to visit Hiroshima… I plan to go someday.

I agree @Hao it is a sobering experience. But as I read on the UNITAR site, Hiroshima is a place of great contrasts "...devastation and recovery, tragedy and hope, sombre reflection and modern prosperity...". It is humbling to see such a beautiful city that has such a tragic past.

Beautiful pictures of a really sad story. I felt like crap when I went to the memorial museum.
