Korean tower relocated to Hiroshima park

HIROSHIMA, Japan - A stone tower dedicated to Korean victims of the 1945 U.S. atomic bombing of Hiroshima is relocated to the city's Peace Memorial Park in a ceremony July 21. Hiroshima Mayor Tadatoshi Akiba said the city decided to allow the cenotaph, previously located outside the park, to be relocated because its exclusion had been considered a symbol of discrimination.

    (240418) -- JIAXING(ZHEJIANG), April 18, 2024 (Xinhua) -- A stone bridge and a tower are seen at night in the Nanhu Lake in Jiaxing City, east China's Zhejiang Province, April 10, 2024. Located in east China's Zhejiang Province, the waterside city Jiaxing is renowned for tourist destinations Nanhu Lake and Wuzhen. In the breezy month of April, the two tourist hotspots come alive with the gentle touch of spring. Nanhu Lake, with its shimmering waters and willow trees swaying along the lakeside, is a sight to behold. The historic water town Wuzhen also enchants with its emerald waters and whitewashed walls adorned with black tiled roofs. Visitors can immerse themselves in the scenery by donning traditional Hanfu attire and leisurely gliding along the river on rowing boats. The juxtaposition of ancient dwellings, stone bridges, and willow trees along the riverbanks resembles scenes from a classical ink painting, transporting visitors to a bygone era.
