The Thousand Paper Cranes Project

As Hiroshima Hana Hostel staff Kumi posted a blog about A Thousand Paper Cranes before. Kyoto Hana Hostel had started The Thousand Paper Cranes Project for those affected by The Tohoku Pacific Earthquake.

Please make some paper cranes when you stay. It's not difficult at all. We have "how to make" guide, too.

We have made more than a hundred for these 4 days!

Shame on me! I wasn't able to make a paper crane before.... now I am an expert.

Hiroshima World Peace Memorial Cathedral

In Hiroshima,there is a cathedral which was erected to commemorate the victims of the atomic bombs and it is a symbol of world peace.

The cathedral started construction on Aug.6,1950 and was completed 4years later(on Aug.6,1954).Also,it was designated as a national important cultural property in 2006.
