A tragic church. The Catholic Church was rejected by the government when it first entered Japan. The Catholics also experienced hardships to maintain their own Xinyang and build a shrine. The original church was destroyed by the original explosion in 1945, and now we see it rebuilt in 1959. Pushang Catholic Church is 500 meters from the original explosion point, and there are still some remains to be seen. There are not many tourists, so you can visit the church at will.

    Next to the monument at the center of the atomic bomb, there is only one arch standing. On one side, there will be a profile card indicating which part of the Catholic Church in the original Pushang. This is also part of the remains of the atomic bomb, but the surrounding area is already residential, and the marks of the atomic bomb are only stored on these relics.

    The Catholic Church, a building funded by foreigners before World War II, was later destroyed in the Big Bang, and the color and style emerged after several restorations, basically restoring the original appearance and the iconic view of the old town.

    It was said to have been the largest church in East Asia, but it was completely destroyed in the Nagasaki nuclear explosion. Now it is a rebuilt church. Around it, there are some broken walls that have been left behind.

    It's very close to Nagasaki Peace Park. It's about 10 minutes'walk. The original site of the church is said to have taken 20 years to complete. The Nagasaki atomic bomb explosion is very close to the church. After the explosion, the rubble is now located in the Memorial Square of the Nagasaki Nuclear Explosion Center. The present church was later rebuilt.

    The cathedral is very close to Nagasaki Harbor and can be reached on foot. The church has a certain slope on the hill. It can see some urban scenery. The cathedral is very modern and has not many characteristics. The statue of the Holy Spirit at the entrance is incomplete. It was left over by the blasting. It is a bit impressive! _____

    Pushang Catholic Church is near the central square where the original explosion fell. According to the electronic map, there will be a small supermarket along the road. It is not necessary to go in to supplement the physical strength. Pushang Catholic Church was originally in the center of the original explosion, but when the explosion was. The church has been destroyed, and the present Ura Upper Catholic Church is rebuilt according to the original appearance, even the stone market at the door is exactly the same as the original!
