Today we toured around Hiroshima. Our first stop was the Atomic Bomb Dome, which is the remaining structure after the bomb destroyed most of the city.

This was the hypocenter where the bomb fell, it was detonated approximately 180m above this spot. The surface temperatures reached 4000 degrees Celsius.

We toured the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum.

Our next stop was the Hiroshima Castle.

A pussy willow tree that is 770 meters from the hypocenter, that survived the blast.

This was a circular escalator in a mall.

A bin full of onigiri in a Don Quijote store.

The parking is fascinating, the circular turntables are used to maneuver cars into the right position.

For dinner we had okonomiyaki.

Okonomiyaki is a savory pancake containing a variety of ingredients.
