    I'm a Latin american living in Australia. We learned about Hiroshima at school in my country. When my daughter was about 8, one of her teachers (in Australia) went to Japan for a visit. When she returned she taught her students about Japan and got the kids to do a project on it. My 8-Year-old chose to do it on the bombing of Hiroshima and specifically on the story of Sadako Sasaki and the Peace cranes. Fast track to 2016 (my daughter is now 16) and on our first visit to Japan, when we could not have missed Hiroshima. I admit that when you were filming at the Dome I also got very emotional remembering that my daughter and I stood at the same spot. I felt there was definitely something there that is very moving.

    I'm born and raised in Hawaii and yes, Hawaii locals are very much educated on the Hiroshima atomic bombing, especially since WWII pretty much started with the attack on Pearl Harbor located on the island of Oahu (which is where I live). In college, I minored in Japanese and we read various Japanese literature. For those who want to learn about the horrors of the Hiroshima atomic bombing, I recommend you read "Black Rain" by Masuji Ibuse. Such a powerful novel but very eye-opening. Another book that I read in middle school was "Sadako and the 1000 Paper Cranes" which also revolves around the Hiroshima atomic bombing. Both books were very good so I highly recommend.

I too had a reaction at the peace park that I wasn't expecting to feel. I am from British Columbia Canada and we did learn about Hiroshima and Nagasaki in I believe grade 7 or 8. I came across the children's memorial first and it was like a kick to the gut. I bawled my eyes out. They happened to have a children's choir performing. It's a good thing I opted to not wear makeup that day because it would have been ruined.
    Hiroshima is high on the list to return to and spend a little longer in.

    Loves this video. Can’t wait for part 2! I learned about Hiroshima and Nagasaki in school. It was freshman or sophomore year. I also was obsessed with world war 2 movies which seemed to come out a lot in the 2000s. They did tend to focus on the Holocaust more when discussing WW2 in school. I don’t remember my teachers discussing the Japanese internment camps either. I learned that later in college.

    I know this video is from a few months back, but I've been enjoying going through your back catalog. Gorgeous videos with excellent cinematography.
    I visited Hiroshima and Miyajima back in 2012. I hope you make it out to Miyajima some day even if the Torii gate isn't repaired. It was under construction for repairs even in 2012! I think it's like Mt. Fuji, if you see the gate not under construction, it's good luck but rare!
    That said, Miyajima is like Nara in that there are deers everywhere, so it's definitely worth a visit on its own.

    Thank you so much for posting this video! I've been living in Hiroshima for the past 6 years, where my Japanese colleagues and I founded a peace education nonprofit. We are in Peace Park almost every day holding programs for thousands of students who visit Hiroshima each year.
    Like you, I am an American who learned nothing of the atomic bombings until I went to university. Spending time with atomic bomb survivors and their descendants changed the course of my life and led me to dedicate my career to creating positive social impact. I'm so grateful to you for making this vlog and including the part about Hiroshima. I was truly moved to hear your impressions of the Park! No matter our views on nuclear weapons and their role in the world, Hiroshima's power of place is transformative and I hope many people can learn about what happened here.

      ​@@missplainjane3905 While I am not a Japan expert, I truly enjoy living here. The scenery and food varies a lot from east to west, and I do consider it a developed country. It definitely has its share of societal problems and is not a perfect place, but it is a stimulating and beautiful place to live. There is a lot of diversity amongst Japanese people but my Japanese friends are all friendly, care about making the world a better place, and have taught me a lot. So as you can see, quite a nuanced place, like all places are. :)

    I’m from Australia, and we study Japanese in primary school. Our school had multiple connections with Japan and specifically with Hiroshima. We contributed to the 1000 cranes and have a plaque there with our school name and acknowledgements.
    In highschool I got the opportunity to do an exchange to Japan (pre Covid) and it was a big eye opener to finally see everything in person. Your channel (and many other RUclipsrs in Japan) have kept me inspired to continue wanting to live in Japan in the future.
    I’ve almost completed my degree and will be moving to Japan next year and I’m so excited to experience everything for myself, rather than through a screen 😂 Thank you for your hard work!! You keep everything up to the best standard and you’re one of my favourite RUclipsrs (I’m always showing your channel off to everyone I talk to about Japan 🥰)

      All good!
      - In terms of development and advancements, I don’t see Japan being as more developed in all areas. I have heard and seen from people living there that they lack information and techniques in health and safety. I experienced this first hand when I was in Japan and I caught the flu. Their medicines and methods were really simple in comparison to Australia, but this may be what works for them and Japanese people. As I was only there for just over a month and I was in school, I don’t think I was able to see everything in great detail.
      - In terms of food/culture/architecture/nature and landscape, I would rate places like Osaka, Kyoto and many of the rural towns as 10. This is personal preference as I really enjoy and admire the cultural and historical aspects of Japan. In more urban living in Tokyo and the more developed areas, I would rate 8/10. This is mostly because they have a lot of high rise buildings and corporate areas which sometimes can feel overwhelming with all the people. The stores like beauty, fashion and especially food stalls are what make it better as I have always loved exploring for different spots to enjoy. I also feel this gives a sense of community when meeting new people and experiencing new sights. One thing I’m interested to see is the cost of living and how living in Japan will be since I always stayed with a Host family, and the fact that back then I was still really young and didn’t even think of money/housing/food etc. That will be an interesting experience 😂
      - from all the people I’ve met in and outside of japan (currently at my uni have Japanese students from Tokyo University on exchange). Most Japanese people I’ve met have been quiet spoken and kind in all situations. Whether it be interacting at the grocery store, in school, at theme parks. Even if they don’t know English (or whatever language you speak) they will make an effort to make you feel comfortable and understand what they’re trying to convey. I also have found that most Japanese people really appreciate any little effort you put into knowing the language and culture. But there are always going to be people out there who won’t fit into the stereotypes, so I have been told to be wary and act as if I were in Australia. Which means don’t trust strangers, don’t go out alone and be wary of your environment etc. (just living as women do 😒)
      - 3 words… beautiful, serene and harmonious (lots more words, but that’s what I see it as right now!)
      Thank youuu

    I was taught about the atomic bomb situation while in regular school. I'm in my 60s and from Los Angeles County, San Gabriel Valley area.
    I should have stopped off in Hiroshima while in Japan in the summers of 2017/2018/2019, but I was on the Shinkansen on my way to Fukuoka.
    The late (Aug 2022) and great fashion designer Issey Miyake was from Hiroshima. He was 7 when the bomb dropped in 1945 and experienced the horrors of the situation. His mom sent him off to live with relatives in the country side after the bombing. She died of radiation poisoning around 3 years later. War is horrible and we as humans need to move in the direction of peace.

    Great vlog! I want to visit Japan many times because you'll never get bored.
    The great thing about Hiroshima Peace Park is that it does not express any resentment toward the United States but rather calmly conveys what happens when a nuclear bomb is used. They simply pay tribute to those who died and pray for the elimination of nuclear weapons and world peace. Speaking of which, I was honestly surprised that Americans were so welcome when I visited Hiroshima in the past. They definitely loved Americans. There is also a U.S. military base right next to Hiroshima City, and they live very well together (but a very small number of crazy communist leftists seem to disagree).
    I think the reason why Japan recovered incredibly quickly after the defeat in the war and became one of the top economic powers in the world is because of its national character, which does not get stuck in the past like this, but recovers quickly, works together, respects each other, and continuously improves toward better goals.

If you didn't make it on this trip, I highly recommend Mitaki Shrine. It's lesser known, and just lovely. Also recommend Shimaji Coffee Roasters - - best coffee I've ever had!

    4 weeks late lol but to answer that question: I live in Detroit, Michigan so I went to Detroit Public Schools all my life. My mother wanted me to go to a private school of creative arts because I love art and I dance a lot but the entry to get in already passed so I couldn't go. Anyways, in Detroit Public School, we didn't have much and budget cuts was an everyday thing but I would say when I was in the 4th grade (Age: 9) We had a japanese visitor named Ms. Kazama (I think that was her name) and she taught us origami and a few basic japanese phrases. She only taught us how to make a boat, hat, and swan (The only origami I knew by heart) but sadly no crane and I wanted to so badly.
    Fast forward to middle school/high school, We were only taught american history and not international which is why I thought history was a boring subject growing up. However, the first time I heard about the bombing of Hiroshima is when I watched Grave of the Fireflies. Then in high school, (I would say 11 grade when I was 16) Our history teacher made us watch a clip of the Hiroshima bombing, which was very depressing but that pushed me into history once more but not just American but all around the world. I feel that it's important everyone should have full knowledge of historal events in every country versus just learning just one. I'm not sure why but I had a feeling growing up they did not want us to learn about other events that happened outside of the U.S.A.
