About
Commemorative clock tower whose chimes ring daily at 8:15 AM.
This modern-looking tower stands in the Peace Memorial Park. Its chimes ring every day at 8:15 AM, the exact time the atomic bomb exploded in 1945. It symbolizes the passage of time and invites reflection, though its contemporary design contrasts with the historic setting.
