At the moment, a mushroom cloud soared into the sky, giving off dazzling white light. In an instant, Hiroshima immediately turned into a searing sea of fire. The steel frame is weak, the concrete turns to dust, the sand turns to glass, the corpse turns to smoke, the fallen people can't get up again, and the survivors are blind.
It was a historic atomic bombing in Hiroshima, killing 78,000 people and injuring more than 75,000 people. Those who survived suffered a certain dose of nuclear radiation and died in the next few decades.
We all know that after the atomic bomb exploded, the plants and trees in the explosion area and its surrounding area withered because of the nuclear radiation left behind, which was no longer suitable for human habitation. Referring to the accident of Chernobyl nuclear power plant in the Soviet Union in the 1980s, outsiders are still restricted from entering the core area of the disaster, and the whole city is in ruins. The nuclear radiation hazard caused by the atomic bomb explosion in Hiroshima is relatively less than that caused by the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident in the Soviet Union. What is Hiroshima like today, 74 years later?
After Hiroshima was destroyed by the atomic bomb, scientists predicted that there would be no vegetation growth in the explosion center in the next 75 years. However, grass grew on the wet land in the autumn rain that year, and the oleander planted the next year survived. People are more tenacious than vegetation. Survivors and foreign builders began to rebuild on the ruins. By the 1980s, Hiroshima had developed into a modern metropolis with well-known enterprises such as Mazda, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries and Hiroshima Bank.
Today, Hiroshima's population has increased to 6.5438+0.2 million, and its urban area has expanded to 900 square kilometers, making it one of the top ten cities in Japan, with raw materials as the main import port and automobile export port. There are six atomic energy research centers around Hiroshima, and the main electricity in the city comes from nuclear power plants.
Wu Mi Department Store was the most magnificent building of that year. Only its dome roof truss has not collapsed in the whole city, and it has remained in its original place and become a historical relic. Around the residual building, the new Wu Mi Building with more than nine floors occupies a whole block.
Today, the greening rate in Hiroshima, Japan is more than twice the national average. There are trees, flowers and birds everywhere. At that moment, thousands of passengers merged with the tram. Today, trams are still an important means of transportation in this city, with various models, competing with the flowers and plants on the roadside. The number of tourists has reached a new high for three consecutive years.
In the Peace Park in downtown Hiroshima, Japan, the fountain holds a group of statues of the victims, and the memorial tablet is engraved with the list of the victims. The epitaph reads: "rest in peace, the mistake won't happen again." The ever-burning lamp behind the monument will be lit until nuclear weapons are destroyed and world peace is realized. On August 6th every year, hundreds of thousands of people hold a consolation ceremony here.
