Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum
Travel further into the Peace Memorial Park and a modern contsruction made from three connected buildings will be seen. The left and the center buildings are the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum. The real personal effects of those who were exposed to the radiation are displayed, as well as the images and models of people and the city of Hiroshima of that time. Hiroshima has kept appealing for the denuclearization of the world as one of the cities which knows the real dreadfulness of the Atomic Bomb.
As a part of the tour, you can learn the risk of nuclear weapons on the 3rd floor of the east building. In addition, the Peace Watch Tower is displayed on the 1st floor. The upper digital watch counts the days since the bombing of Hiroshima and the lower watch shows the days since the latest nuclear test was held on earth. It still continues counting the days wishing for all the nuclear weapons to disappear from the world.
