August 6

This year, I once again attended the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Ceremony.

As someone born and raised in Hiroshima, August 6 is a special day for me. At 8:15 a.m., I joined the moment of silence in remembrance of those who lost their lives.

After the ceremony, I attended an English testimony by an A-bomb survivor, followed by a discussion with people from different countries and generations. It is always a meaningful experience.

This year marks 81 years since the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

The average age of A-bomb survivors is now 86. The opportunity to hear their stories firsthand will not last forever.

There is something each of us can do.
The first step is to learn, to listen, and never forget.

For just three days in April,
Noh performers from across Japan gather at Itsukushima Shrine to perform as a sacred offering — a form of traditional Japanese theater.

Beside the noise.
A step back in time.

No more Hiroshima
No more Hibakusha

Miyajima is filled with visitors every day, welcoming guests from all over Japan and around the world. Yet there are still quiet streets and hidden corners where you hardly meet anyone.
There are countless places I wish I could share with every guest, but time is limited — and some of these spots are also where I quietly recharge and find calm. Miyajima is truly special to me.
