The Children’s Peace Monument is located in Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park and commemorates the children who lost their lives due to the atomic bombing in 1945.
It is inspired by the story of Sadako Sasaki, a young girl who developed leukemia after the bombing and became known for folding paper cranes as a symbol of hope and peace. Today, visitors from around the world leave colorful paper cranes at the monument.
The site serves as a symbol of peace and a reminder of the impact of war on innocent lives.
