| Description | Looking northeast from the Fukuya Department Store new building. From left are the Hiroshima Central Broadcasting Station, the Kumura Residence, Hiroshima Station, the boiler building and chimney of Hiroshima Railway Hospital, and Hiroshima Nagarekawa Church. This photo was taken from the emergency stairs of the Fukuya Department Store new building. The original plan was to photograph the entire city from the rooftop, but the 8th floor was too hot to enter due to the still-smoldering embers, so the photographer took what photos he could. |
