Hiroshima Day
On August 6, 1945, the US B29 bomber Enola Gay entered the skies over Hiroshima and dropped an atomic bomb from an altitude of 9,600 meters.  As a historical witness that conveys the disaster of the first atomic bombing in history, and as a symbol of the vow to pursue the abolition of nuclear weapons and enduring peace, in December 1996 the A-bomb Dome was registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List based on the Convention for the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage.
