atomic bomb– tag –

On the night of August 6, lantern floating is held at Motoyasu River in Hiroshima City. I have researched the meaning and history of this event, and have written about my own thoughts on it, as well as my experience of going with a friend four years ago and floating lanterns. There is also a video I took at that time.

Hiroshima's "Orizuru Tower" is a building where you can view Peace Memorial Park from the observation deck and experience and feel various things about origami cranes and peace. I have compiled a list of opening hours and travel time, along with video and landscape photos I took.

There are many cenotaphs and prayer statues in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park. We have put all of them on a map, with photos and brief explanations to list them by area. Each one has its own significance. It would be my pleasure if you could visit them as much as you have time.
