i boarded the train to hiroshima from osaka...
in hiroshima, i was kinda taken aback by the slower pace... which is OK... the place is easy to get around... the tourist map you get from the shinkansen station - hiroshima station.... is good enough for you to get to where u wanna go...
my first stop was at the remnants of the atomic bomb...
i wasn't really taken in by it all until i got to the museum.... in there, i was a bit sadden to see what the bomb did to the people and city of hiroshima...
this was the model on display... only a few buildings were left standing... so basically what you see now is rebuilt...
but the somberness still leaves me a bit distraught....
you should not miss coming here to hiroshima for the feel... the history is one thing... but the feel of a city destroyed and now rebuilt...
tomorrow i'm heading off to miyajima...
