The violent explosion and the enormous heat generated by the atomic bomb explosion at 11:02 am on August 9, 1945 destroyed the buildings of the Sanno Shrine, located only 800 meters southeast of the hypocenter.

The two mighty camphor trees were nuzzled, defoliated, the trunk split and burnt by the heat rays. At that time it was assumed that the trees were dead. But they are drifting out of us are a symbol of the new beginning.
