Sakura at the Hypocenter

Just north a few minutes from downtown Nagasaki and Nagasaki station is the hypocenter of the atomic bomb drop.

I happen to visit Nagasaki during the height of the Sakura trees blooming, so I took a bunch of photos of the iconic place.

I try to visit the hypocenter, peace park, and the memorial museum every time I visit Nagasaki.

Here's a poorly written post from a long time when I first visited: September 17th, 2006

And here's another from a few years later: April 8th, 2008
