Hiroshima is nestled among lush foothills, with the Chugoku Mountain Range towering in the background. Six sparkling rivers flow through the delta formed at the mouth of the Ota River, creating urban vistas that have given rise to the nickname "City of Water." The city also faces the Seto Inland Sea, renowned for the myriad lovely islands that decorate its placid surface. The history of modern-day Hiroshima, however, is inextricably bound to the August 6, 1945, bombing of the city during World War II. The city was essentially destroyed. The effects of that bomb have impacted all lives in the city since then, and there are peace foundations in the city and strong local efforts to build greater understanding among peoples around the world. |
