easily believes that this city was once devastated to rags and ruins. This

large number of tourists from
around the world. The museum,
the park, the Atomic Bomb
Dome, the Mitaki-Dera Temple
and Hiroshima Castle are a few
perfect sights to be observed in
Hiroshima. It is a well developed
environment-friendly city with

model of reconstruction for the global community. The administration
and the people of the city advocate the need of peace and love for a better
world with an untiring effort.
