Hiroshima
We got the train to Hiroshima today. What an amazing city. We mainly spent our time wandering around the Peace Park looking at the A-bomb dome (which amazingly stood up to the bomb) and the various memorials that have been put there in memory, like the cenotaph and the eternal flame. All of these you can see in the photo.
The museum was fascinating. We spent hours there just reading all the information. It was a very sobering day and we learnt an awful lot. You would not believe how well the city has recovered from the tragedy.
