The Daily Donal Vlog: Exploring the historical city of Hiroshima

On a down day in Japan, Donal Lenihan explores the city of Hiroshima, a city that will be forever linked to the destruction and devastation caused by the atomic bomb in August 6, 1945.

The explosion by a single bomb claimed the lives of over two hundred thousand people and an area of the city of about 2km in radius was turned into ash immediately.

Donal notices how most of the original building of a former hall, now known as the Atomic Bomb Dome, is still intact following restoration over the years despite everything else around it turning to ash.

It now stands in the Japanese town as a symbol of peace.
