The remnants of a building which survived the 1945 Hiroshima atomic bomb blast.
The contrast of this building with the urban cityscape behind serves as a stark reminder of the devastating effects of war and what will happen to a beautiful place should something similar ever break out again. At the same time, this also shows how much Japan has recovered from the postwar effects till its present day status as an economic superpower.
