The former army clothing depot should be preserved

Next to the depot stand ordinary houses

The former army clothing depot in Hiroshima remains to this day. Being 2.7 km away from the hypocenter, it withstood the atomic blast on August 6, 1945. I rode a bike along it and completely overwhelmed. This historic complex of four buildings which form a large letter L has to be preserved. The complex is visible from a major street but come closer and look at it right there. This eloquently talks to us about the history of the city more than photos or books. Then naturally you would like to know what it was and start learning by yourself.
