| This building stands on a slope of a hill called Hijiyama. Hiroshima City
built it to commemorate the 100 anniversary of RAI Sanyo, a scholar from
the Edo period, after his death. The original roof was covered with tiles,
different from the current square appearance. Inside were a statue of RAI
Sanyo and others. |

#2: The ornamental spire on top of the building was warped due to the A-bomb
blast. |
