Former Site of the Second Hiroshima Miritary Hospital
The Second Hiroshima Miritary Hospital stood at the northwest end of Moto-machi an area with rows of miritary facilities. On the day of the atomic bombing, there were 330 employees and 750 patients inside the hospital. As a result of the explosion, the building was destroyed and went up in flames, resulting in heavy casualties. The few surviving employees constructed shelters made from straw mats and sheets of galvanized steel along the bank of the Ota River, where the beauty of the cherry trees had been a constant source of comfort for the patients. This shelter served as a first aid stasion where numerous victims were treated.
