Day: 6 Hiroshima

We went back on the shinkansen(bullet train) and traveled to Hiroshima. Unfortunately it was a rainy and cloudy morning but we made it work. We went to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park - they have a beautiful park full of prayer statues and memorial figures to remember the day the atomic bomb was dropped on the city. We didn't go to the museum part of it - felt too heavy for us - I started tearing up a bit just seeing so many people at the park and in the lobby, wanting to visit and remember the people and city lost in the tragedy.

Staying at the Hotel Granvia next to the Hiroshima Station. Very classy.Weiterlesen
