I assumed Nagasaki Peace Park would be similar to Hiroshima. But, they don't have a large, building still standing, in order to show the destruction. Instead, they have a smaller park, and lots of fountains. At the centre of the park is this large coppery blue guy, who represents peace, and they also have lots of sculptures from around the world depicting peace.
It was really nice to see the different interpretations of peace from around the world. It was nice and quiet, and good to sit and think.It was just so very different from Hiroshima, and yet the same thing happened in both places. The museum was very upsetting too, but in a different way. I can't quite explain it.
