Cenotaph for the A-Bomb Victims, Hiroshima Overview

A saddle-shaped arch sheltering a stone chest that holds the register of everyone known to have died, now well past 300,000 names. Stand square in front of it and the arch frames the Flame of Peace and the Dome beyond in one line, which is the photograph everyone comes away with. This is also where the annual ceremony is held each 6 August. Free and always accessible.
