Hiroshima Peace Bell
A bell built in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park in Naka Ward, Hiroshima City, Hiroshima Prefecture which was erected in 1964 in the hop of the abolition of atomic weaponry and everlasting world peace. All visitors are free to ring the bell. The bell was designed by Living National Treasure Masahiko Katori. The bell hangs under a dome-shaped roof modeled after the cosmos and is decorated with a borderless map of the world. There are other peace bells in the park—one displayed in the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum which is run on the August 6 Peace Memorial Ceremony, and another in the Peace Clock Tower which rings each morning at 8:15 a.m.
