Honkawa Elementary School Peace Museum in Hiroshima, Japan, serves as a poignant reminder of the devastating impact of the atomic bombing on August 6, 1945. Housed within the preserved ruins of the original school building, which was one of the closest schools to the bomb's hypocenter, the museum offers a somber yet educational experience. Exhibits include photographs, artifacts, and personal stories that highlight the resilience of the survivors and the importance of peace.
