JP-58561

Hiroshima Castle in Hiroshima, Japan. It was once the home of feudal lord of Hiroshima. The original building was destroyed during the Second World War, when the first atomic bomb dropped into this city and devastated the city. It was rebuilt in 1958. Thanks yukari.



















The stamps used to send this postcard have been issued quite some time. It was sent with a train stamp (¥62), a ship stamp (¥ 7) and the founder of Japanese postal service, Maejima Hisoka (¥ 1). They were stamped at Asaminami, Hiroshima on 21/2/2009. It needs ¥ 70 to send a postcard.
