The Hiroshima Atomic Bomb Hypocenter is the very epicenter of where the world's first atomic bomb was detonated in wartime. Located a mere 600 meters above Hiroshima's Shima Surgical Clinic, this site serves as a powerful and stark reminder of the moment that forever changed the landscape of global warfare and the city of Hiroshima. Visitors to the hypocenter are greeted with a simple plaque marking the spot, but the weight of its significance is palpable. The quiet surroundings allow for a moment of deep reflection on the sheer magnitude of the event and its countless ramifications. While Hiroshima has since rebuilt and flourished, the hypocenter stands as an eternal testament to the city's resilience, the human cost of war, and the unyielding hope for a future free from nuclear weapons.

This is not in any guidebooks, there are no signs pointing to it, it’s on a busy side street, tucked up against a hospital. THE hospital that was obliterated during the blast and rebuilt in the exact spot. This location is arguably the most important spot in Hiroshima as it pertains to the Atomic Bomb, yet very few people know it exists. It’s about 2 minutes walk from the A-Bomb Dome and around the corner from the Jizoson statue. Absolutely worth a visit to read the plaque. You can’t help but look up and imagine what being on that spot on that fateful summer day in 1945 must have been like. I can honestly say my visit to Hiroshima would not have felt complete unless I stopped here to pay my respects.

A spot with monumental importance. Yet you’d hardly ever notice it, the only thing there being a plaque right next to the entry to a parking complex. - Someone even mentioned the exact spot for the detonation of the atomic bomb is actually the entrance to the parking complex. Whichever, this place needs so much more attention from the city of Hiroshima. Standing there we instinctively looked towards the sky and took a deep breath. Would have been nice if, at the same time, we didn’t have to be careful not being taken out by cars and other tourists.

Located on a quiet side street, this small simple plaque is a stark reminder of such a significant human tragedy. I’d suggest that before you go to the atomic bomb dome, peace park and other memorials you take the time to visit the exact spot where that fateful atomic bomb exploded. The irony is that the detonation was directly above a small private hospital, the founders of which have since rebuilt the facility. To be on the very site of the hypocenter (ground zero) for me is so more poignant than most of the other memorials to that day and the events...
