The map
Hiroshima is built on the delta of the Ōta River, which splits into several channels as it approaches Hiroshima Bay. From above, the city looks like a series of long islands separated by water, each crossed by bridges and filled with a dense grid of streets. The hills rise sharply around the delta's northern and western edges, limiting how far the flat city can spread.
On 6 August 1945, Hiroshima became the first city to be struck by an atomic bomb. The Peace Memorial Park now occupies the northern tip of an island where two river channels divide, and the ruined Atomic Bomb Dome stands on the opposite bank. The rebuilt castle lies a short distance north.
A Hiroshima map poster shows how the rivers organise everything. The channels run from north to south in parallel lines, bridges link the islands, and the land reaches out into the bay with reclaimed port areas. The park, the castle moat and the long avenues of the rebuilt city appear clearly in the pattern.
The Ōta River divides into multiple channels flowing south to the bay, cutting the city into long islands connected by many bridges.
The park fills the northern tip of an island between two channels, a green open space opposite the Atomic Bomb Dome.
North of the centre, the square moat of Hiroshima Castle forms a neat geometric shape among the modern streets of the city.
