Japan is such an interesting country, so different than ours, so organized, so clean ( the funny part is that you don’t find garbage bins easily).
We came to Nagasaki, we really wanted to see how is the city, the people.
The Atomic bomb is part of the history of this country, imagine how important is for the history of NAGASAKI.
We visited the BOMB MUSEUM and the surroundings. Just by the museum we found the Peace park, the famous Shrine, the Cathedral, the Hypocenter (where the bomb exploded), etc.
In the PEACE PARK we will find the famous PEACE MEMORIAL STATUE, it is huge but today they were cleaning and fixing it. This statue has a very interesting meaning, the way is done and the Sculpture wrote this:
After experiencing that nightmarish war,
that blood-curdling carnage,
that unendurable horror,
Who could walk away without praying for peace?
This statue was created as a signpost in the
struggle for global harmony.
Standing ten meters tall,
it conveys the profundity of knowledge and
the beauty of health and virility.
The right hand points to the atomic bomb,
the left hand points to peace,
and the face prays deeply for the victims of war.
Transcending the barriers of race
and evoking the qualities of Buddha and God,
it is a symbol of the greatest determination
ever known in the history of Nagasaki
and the highest hope of all mankind.
— Seibo Kitamura (Spring 1995)
