I had the opportunity to join a tour led by Aly, and I had many questions about Hiroshima and its atomic bombing. Aly did a fantastic job by starting with a brief introduction to the events that led to the dropping of the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima. I was impressed by his approach to history, which he examined from various perspectives learned during his PhD studies. As a PhD holder in Anthropology from Hiroshima University, he has a strong grasp of the city’s history and culture.
If you are curious about Hiroshima’s past and present and want answers to questions such as what Hiroshima was like before World War II, its role in various wars in Japan, why it was the primary target for the atomic bombing, and how the city was reconstructed afterward, then a tour with Ali]y will provide you with all the answers you seek.
Thank you, Aly!
