A fitting memorial

Tucked beside Cologne’s Aachener Weiher, Hiroshima-Nagasaki Park is a peaceful green space dedicated to remembrance and reflection. Named after the bombed Japanese cities, it’s both a symbol of peace and a favourite local escape. Fountains ripple across the pond, shaded paths wind beneath old trees, and open lawns host relaxed gatherings. Whether for quiet thought or a sunny stroll, this park offers a moment of calm in the city’s vibrant rhythm. #westerneurope #park #germany
