Yesterday morning, I had a nice run in Hiroshima. I started running around 6:20 am - and it was very cold.
This building was known as Hiroshima Prefectural Industrial Promotion Hall until 1945.
This is such a beautiful city - and so peaceful.
Hiroshima Castle - the original one was built in 1589. Of course, the current one was re-built after the war.
The Peace Memorial Monument - aligned with the Atomic Dome.
The Peace Memorial Museum - designed by Kenzo Tange.
A new bridge is being built over the river by the Peace Memorial Park.
A big road by the Memorial Park is called Promenade of Peace.
A monument to let us know there used to be a school for girls stood here.
Looking towards the east on Promenade of Peace. A rocket ship in the air?
Enkou Bridge - a concrete bridge that was built in 1926.
The bridge is approx. 1.82 km away from the ground zero, but survived the explosion. The eagle other metal ornaments were recently restored.
A detail of the handrail of the bridge - cute.
A street car arriving at the south side of Hiroshima Station.
