Nagasaki Peace Park was finished in 1955, in memorial of the impact of the 1945 atomic bombing of the city. The park is a fitting tribute, and it's well manicured beauty is a must see when visiting this city.
Between the Peace Park and the Atomic bomb museum lies the Hypocenter Park, and monument marking the ground zero of the bombs impact. The history is quite solemn but the park is a beautiful and popular cherry blossom viewing site as well.
A museum that everybody should visit at some point in their lives. Learn about the history, and present state of nuclear weapons, and gain a new appreciation for peace.
Finish the tour with a short walk to the Sanno Shrine, and the One Legged Torii Gate marking its path. The Torii gate was half destroyed during the 1945 atomic bombing, but continues to stand tall. Just past the gate there are two magnificent Camphor trees that were both stripped clean by the blast, yet persisted and are still alive and flourishing today. A positive note to end the tour with!
