The Children's Peace Monument in Hiroshima, Japan, is a poignant tribute to the child victims of the atomic bombing on August 6, 1945. Inspired by the story of Sadako Sasaki, a young girl who developed leukemia from radiation exposure and folded over a thousand paper cranes in hope for recovery, the monument stands as a symbol of peace and the innocent lives lost.
