Photo Favorite: Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park

May 10, 2011 By Dave

Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park — The A-Bomb Dome viewed from across the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park.

From the A-Bomb Dome, it's a short walk across a bridge to reach the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park.

The park is also the location of a museum dedicated to telling the story of Hiroshima, both before and after the explosion.

Great shot! I didn’t see this memorial when I visited Japan. I like the simplicity of the design.
