Hiroshima

Hiroshima is the capital of Hiroshima Prefecture and the most important city in the Chūgoku region. It is located on the northern coast of the Seto Inland Sea, on the island of Honshū, in the western part of Japan. The town is sadly famous for being the first atomic victim in history on the 6th of April 1945. The ruins of the Genbaku Dome, one of the only buildings not to be completely destroyed during the explosion, have been preserved to bear witness to this event.
