Originally posted by Xilanaz View PostI was in both places last October, in Hiroshima you can still see one buildings from that time and some very nice memorials, also the spot where the bomb exploded in the air (it did not explode on the ground), but all in all left me with a sad impression. The rest of Hiroshima is a lively city though. In Nagasaki I found that it had moved on a bit more then Hiroshima, but then from what I understood it was not destroyed as much as Hiroshima because the bomb exploded more in a bowl area between some mountains.
When I was a kid I read a very graphic books describing the Hiroshima/Nagasaki operations, although I can't say that I even remotely disagreed with that dictator Roosevelt, unlike Obomarama and that buffoon Bush Jr.

Was a pretty interesting tour, though probably not as exciting as Chernobyl . Lots of driving down remote dirt roads in a bus though.
