This large Torii out in the ocean marks the entrance to the floating shrine. A shinto shrine built on the tidal flats of the island so that at high tide it appears to be floating.

Inside the shrine.

Inside the shrine.

One of the few building not flattened by the atomic blast. Now left as a stark reminder.

Exhibition Building.

Memorial to the girl who had leukaemia who tried to fold 1000 paper cranes so she could have a wish come true.

Close to the entrance to the museum. I think it is equivalent to our tomb of the unknown soldier.

The museum is good. It does have a large amount of English. Our only problem is that it is very popular and you are on a human conveyor and there is no real stopping to take the exhibits in.
