Established in 1955, the Peace Memorial Park and Museum stands as a moving tribute to the 70,000 citizens who lost their lives on 1945 年 8月 6 日. Once you step off the bus, you'll make your way to the Atomic Dome, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. From here, you'll walk to the Peace Memorial Park and then to Museum. Along the way inside the park, you'll pass the Peace Clock Tower. Rising 65 feet into the air, the Tower is made of three iron pillars, which represent the hands of the people of Hiroshima united in deep prayer. Atop the Tower is the clock that chimes every day at 8:15, the exact time of the bombing. Further along sits the Children's Peace Monument decorated with the paper cranes gifted all over Japan and the world. The Museum consists of two buildings; the East Building documents the city in a series of before and after models, photos, paintings, and documentaries. Inside the Main Building, you'll find A-bomb artifacts and materials. At the end of the tour, you'll return to your ship.
