In front of the Atomic Bomb Dome. Visited Hiroshima Peace Memorial Day to pray for peace. At 8:15 am on 6 August 1945, an Atomic Bomb was used against civilians for the first time in human history. This building, just 160m from the hypocentre, partially survived. It’s now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In Japan, it's often called a “negative heritage” for peace. Designed by Czech architect Jan Letzel, it originally had a Neo-Baroque structure with Secession-style details. Its dome once stood about 25m tall. An atomic bomb is not just a “big bomb.”
