Bell Tower の Injury

Original Text

A temple just off the tram Hijiyamashita station. Here is a bell that escaped the atomic bomb disaster. However, the beams on the roof of the bell tower that protect the bells left the broken appearance at that time, and I was impressed.

Bell Tower (explosioned building)

Original Text

Tamonin is a temple of the Shingon sect Omuro school at the foot of Mt. Hiji. I worshiped when I went to the vicinity in June. According to the explanation of the temple, it was built by Mr. Mori in Yoshida, Koriyama Castle, and was moved to the foot of Mt. Mitaki along with the construction of Hiroshima Castle, and further moved to this place in 1604. There are bell towers and thirteen towers in the precincts, which miraculously escaped the destruction of the atomic bomb. It was a well-maintained and quiet temple. This is a recommended spot for those who are interested in shrines and temples.

the tomb of the yori clan

In addition to the bell tower that was damaged by the atomic bomb, there is also a graveyard of the Yori clan. I went up all the way inside the temple. Perhaps it was a tombstone, there was also a stone with a strange shape.

There's an atomic bell tower.

It is 17 ５０ｍ away from the center of the explosion, but this is also a temple that suffered major damage due to the blast. The main hall and Kuri were destroyed, but the roof of this bell tower flew, but the pillars have escaped from collapse and are still preserved today.

It's one of the atomic bomb buildings.

In January 2018, I was thinking of taking a walk around Mt. Hiji, so I got off at the entrance of Mt. Hiji on the city train and went up to Mt. Hiji Park. It is located in a temple of the Shingon sect called Tamonin and is designated as an atomic bomb building.
