Atomic Bomb Dome (Genbaku Dome)

A must-visit highlight for anyone traveling to Hiroshima, this site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Originally, it was the Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall. On August 6, 1945, the atomic bomb named 'Little Boy' was dropped here. The immediate impact affected areas within 1-3 kilometers. Not only that, but the bomb's fallout came down as black rain, contaminating people. In the years following, many continued to die from leukemia, a consequence of the bombing.
