An older museum (they are about to kick off a much needed renovation) and Peace Park outside the museum is very nice with many smaller monuments. It was a beautiful data again. At sunset, we took a picture of the dome below, which was one of the only things left standing and sat at ground zero. Because the bomb was detonated 600m in the air, the building directly below it only got downward vertical pressure vs everything else with multiple waves of horizontal pressure. Plus the building had a copper roof, which melted instantly, so there was never a huge pressure difference between the inside and outside. Nobody for km around survived for more than a day except one guy who was working in a basement of a building across the street.
City population is 1.3 up to 2 million in metro area, so it feels small compared to where we have been. More friendly and helpful people than you can imagine.
