Hi Everyone! Let's step into the history of Hiroshima.
In this vlog, we will take a tour through the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and museum to study the past and reflect on its powerful message of global peace.
- Peace Memorial Museum - contains personal artefacts, survivor testimonies, and other documented information about the 1945 Hiroshima bombing.
- Victims Memorial Cenotaph - designed by renowned architect Kenzo Tange, this honors all victims of the bombing, regardless of nationality.
- Children's Peace Monument - this memorial is dedicated to Sadako Sasaki, and thousands of children who perished from the bombing. Sadako Sasaki is famous for folding 1,000 origami cranes hoping to grant her wish of recovering from leukemia, a disease she acquired from the atomic bombing radiation.
- Flame of Peace - a continuously burning monument in the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park that symbolizes the global desire for a nuclear-free world.
- Atomic Bomb Dome - a UNESCO World Heritage site, it's the most enduring symbol of the devastating impact of the world's first atomic bombing.
Some graphic images of war victims are included. Viewer discretion is advised.
