Abstract

WHEN in Hiroshima, a visit to the Peace Memorial Museum located at the city’s Peace Memorial Park is a must for all peaceloving people. After all, this is the only place where one can experience the tragedy of the first nuclear holocaust some 60 years ago. The exhibits at the Peace Memorial Park serve as a vivid reminder of the pain and suffering of the tragedy. Based on official documents, Hiroshima was among the many cities earmarked as a potential target for the atomic bomb explosion. Later, it was singled out as the first target as there were no Allied prisoners of war there. As a result, at precisely 8.15am on Aug 6, 1945, the city was annihilated by an Abomb dubbed Little Boy, which was detonated some 600 metres above the city, killing instantly tens of thousands of civilians
