Did someone say resilience? Kannon Elementary School, right here, stands as a testament to that. This school, you see, survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. Though situated at a distance of 1,770 meters from the hypocenter, it faced the impact. Today, it serves as a reminder of the tragedy while also echoing the spirit of survival. A Kurogane Holly tree stands within the school’s grounds. This tree doesn’t originally belong here. It was initially located in the yard of a residence, also exposed to the bombing. It was later replanted here, its survival mirroring that of the city itself. Similarly, camphor trees line the north side of Kannon Elementary School. These trees bore witness to the devastation from 1,800 meters away. While the school grounds are not open for public access, these trees serve as silent sentinels. They narrate tales of resilience and remind us of the importance of peace.
