What other travelers are saying about Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Hypocenter Park
Serene park for solemn prayers and remembrance. Was nice to sit on a bench and have lunch from a nearby convenience store. There were quite a few schoolchildren on field trips. A must visit if you're going to see Peace Park and the Atomic Bomb museum.
I felt very sad when I saw this momument. How those victims experience such horrific tradegy. May all of them rest in peace.
It's hard to imagine this is the hypocenter during detonation, the heat and pressure instantly vapourize evething within 1km radius. The ground I'm stepping on is where all these victims lies 80 years ago. Unimaginable.
It’s memorable place for all the people. Bit harsh environment, cold weather but still worth to visit.
I could found some monument that happened that night, and ruins remain still.
I highly recommend this place for people who willing to visit Nagasaki for nuke happened that night.
Hypocenter Park is not just a park; it's a profound testament to the devastating power of nuclear weapons and the resilience of the human spirit. Standing at the very epicenter of the atomic bomb explosion, one can't help but feel the weight of history and the immense loss suffered on that fateful day.
It's a place for reflection, remembrance, and a renewed commitment to peace. The monuments, particularly the Cenotaph with the names of the victims, are deeply moving.
While the experience is undeniably somber, there's also a sense of hope. The park itself, with its greenery and signs of life, symbolizes Nagasaki's recovery and the enduring human spirit.
It's a stark reminder of the consequences of war and a powerful call for peace.
Open area themed around the hypocenter of Fat Man. Several larger memorial installations and smaller statues can be discovered in the park. Interconnects with the Bomb Museum via stairway and nearby the tram stop.
