Postcard from Japan.



Officially opened in September 2016, Hiroshima Orizuru Tower is located beside the A-Bomb Dome in Hiroshima. The 50 meter tall tower is one of the few tall buildings around the Peace Memorial Park and offers a great view of the surroundings, including the less commonly seen view of the A-Bomb Dome from above.

The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki cities in August 1945 brought an end to the Second World War, but at a terrible cost to the Japanese civilian population unheard in the history of mankind.

For the first time received postcard from a Postcrosser who has sent/received more than 20000 postcards.

                                     Thank you Taroh for the card and beautiful stamps.
