Hiroshima

Hiroshima is now most famous for being the location of the detonation of the first atomic bomb used in warfare.  A large park and museum has been created near the hypocenter which memorializes that event.  We will also visit a small garden which makes a pleasant place to contemplate the sobering visit to the Peace Park.
