This is as touching as it is interesting. The drawings are quite horrifying. If you visit Hiroshima now, it's an ordinary city. But the museum and memorial park are a popular places for commemoration and education.
If you're feeling brave and want to see a dramatised account of the bombing and the aftermath, try the animated movie BAREFOOT GEN, written by another survivor.
