About

Skeletal remains of the Promotion Hall destroyed by the atomic bomb on August 6, 1945.

The only structure left standing near the blast's hypocenter, this dome with twisted steel frames bears witness to Hiroshima's destruction. A UNESCO World Heritage site, it stands by the Ōta River, facing the Peace Memorial Park.
