Hiroshima National Peace Memorial Hall for the Atomic Bomb Victims:
Chairs Installed in the Temporary Exhibition Area
In the Temporary Exhibition Area at the Hiroshima National Peace Memorial Hall for the Atomic Bomb Victims, a program exhibition is held on a theme decided every year, to communicate the reality of the atomic bombing mainly through displays of atomic bombing testimonies. The three-screen theater installed in the Temporary Exhibition area also screens 20-minute videos with English subtitles that explain the atomic bombing testimonies on display in a way that is easy to understand.
  This area can be found on floor B1, on the left immediately after alighting the escalator, and is viewed by many visitors. However some visitors have commented that due to old age, it was difficult to view the videos standing up, and have recommended that we install chairs in the room so that many people can watch the videos to the end.
  In response to such requests, the central display stand was removed from the area and ten chairs have been installed in its place, in time for the Hiroshima Peace Ceremony on August 6 when many people visit the facility.
  Since the chairs were installed many people sit there to watch and fully appreciate the videos.
