[Trivia]
Near the Nagasaki Atomic Bomb Museum, there is a monument marking the hypocenter of the atomic bomb, which indicates the spot where the atomic bomb was dropped. The remains of the destroyed Urakami Cathedral are also on display here.

[Hidden gem]
The museum's interior is well-equipped, but the exterior of the building and the surrounding exhibits are also worth a look. Right next to the museum is Peace Park, where monuments sent from all over the world stand, carrying messages of peace. You can also take a little further and see the remains of Urakami Cathedral, which will give you a deeper sense of the devastation at the time. The video exhibition room in the museum is relatively quiet at certain times, so you can sit down and take your time watching and listening to the testimonies.
