A museum of grief and sorrow built to commemorate the atomic bombings


Japan, the land of the rising sun, where the usual pleasant morning was waking up, and the city of Hiroshima was receiving the glow of life from the same sun.

Citizens were busy with their daily routine. Students had to get to school on time, office workers were on their way to their destination, some were walking, some were on bicycles, some decided to cover their distance by motorbike and some by train. , Cars and buses were also running on the roads. Everywhere life was smiling like an innocent child.

There were many houses in this oppressed city, whose kitchens still had a delicious breakfast activity and smoke rising from the chimneys. The waves of the river flowing in the middle of the city were also flowing roughly.

One of the city's most famous buildings was the commercial center for the promotion of provincial industrial affairs, with the janitor preparing to open the main entrance to the domed building. Outside a bank, the person concerned was waiting for the bank to open, whose financial need may have brought him there prematurely.

All the set scenes of the city were active in their being. In such a situation, the clocks all over the city were ringing at 8:14 and then exactly one minute later, that doomsday fell on the city on which humanity is still suffering. The pages of history are black with ashes rising from there.


The 37-year-old local journalist, Nakamura, was cycling out of the city at lightning speed as usual. He did this almost daily in order to get the regional news of the surroundings. For the same purpose he came out of the city on August 6, 1945 at his appointed time, but when he returned, everything was back. In his city there was a senate of death, life was kept in the coffin of brutality and he was the first person from outside to see the full face of this resurrection.

There is hardly a greater shock to a human being on the planet than to see a whole city full of human beings reduced to ashes in front of his eyes. The Japanese journalist was impressed despite being several kilometers away from the city. When the atomic bomb exploded, it shook and fell to the ground, injuring his face. He first broke the news at his newspaper's headquarters in another city, but no official was ready to believe it. Then, in the next few seconds, when the US President was informed, the Japanese army was not ready to accept this, although a Japanese military plane flew from Tokyo and did not see the doomsday scene of the destruction of Hiroshima. A city where all bodies and souls were wounded.

We all know why and how the bombing took place in World War II. I don't even go into his journalistic statement, I just shudder to think that a bomb was used in the world, in which a conservative estimate of 1.5 million people were killed backwards, more injured and affected. Happened Then another similar nuclear explosion took place in Nagasaki, another city in Japan, where millions of people were killed. Seventy-five years have passed since the tragedy, but the pain is still there.

Today Hiroshima has emerged from this pile of ashes and turned into a new and developed city, when the bullet train stops at its station and you get out of it and enter the city, it is unthinkable that it It is the world's first atomic bomb city.

Even today, people are busy with their own affairs, traffic is flowing on the streets, happy gossip is going on in the tea houses, but in this city, the 'Hiroshima Memorial Peace Museum' as a memorial to the passing of this Hour. The building is where history is still sobbing.

The city's various mayors wrote letters of protest and appealed to the world to stop all atomic bombs from becoming a nuclear power. To see the 'Hiroshima Memorial Peace Museum', a sculpture depicting the burnt clothes of innocent Hiroshima children, human skin slipping from their bodies, holes in the face instead of eyes, molten bodies of millions of people and pain. Invited to learn a lesson from the horrific destruction of this nuclear frenzy and stay some. It is the only museum in the world that should never be built, anywhere, again in any country.

The majority of ordinary Japanese also think that everything is permissible in love and war. If they had not surrendered in this war, there would have been more casualties and if they had an atomic bomb, they would probably have used it in response, but now The war is over, so he says we should forget all hatred and work for peace.

If this war did not stop, there would be more rivers of blood. The amazing thing is that modern Japan was born from this nuclear ash. Japan, the world's number one economy, has the world's most secure and valuable passport, according to a survey this year. Winning Nobel Prizes in science, technology, culture and literature and other fields, the country, where even today, primary and high school children visit the Hiroshima Memorial Peace Museum to learn about the modern world. Also get to know their history and national tragedy.


The Hiroshima Memorial Peace Museum features scenes from the city before and after the atomic bombing. Just like outside a bank, a man waiting for the bank to open was blown away like smoke after the bomb blast, only the image of the man sitting on the stone in front of the bank door remains, that stone is also present in this museum. Torn school uniforms and other items, as well as countless pictures, are heartbreaking.

The voices of those who bear witness to this Hour tremble with pain. Scenes of doomsday from the atomic bomb are still standing in this museum. Letters to the heads of other nuclear powers, including Pakistan and India, are also on display in the museum.

Museums can be found in a few selected languages ​​of the world. In this regard, Urdu is also one of the few languages, due to the Japanese friends, who love Pakistan and are associated with the teaching of Urdu in Japan. Thanks to their efforts, Urdu has become one of the few languages ​​in the museum.


This is a topic on which there is less to be written, read and spoken about. There is a thirst and a vacuum, which cannot be fully expressed. To understand this situation, read the novel "Black Rain" by a Japanese writer, Masoji Ibuse, and get a chance to know in detail the scenes before and after this tragedy.
