	Urakami - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Urakami Tenshudo (Catholic Church in Nagasaki) destroyed by the atomic bomb, the bell of the church having toppled off.
		Urakami, Nagasaki, Nagasaki Prefecture, is a suburb in Nagasaki, the exact ground zero where the atomic bomb exploded on August 9, 1945.
		Urakami was not the intended Nagasaki ground zero for the explosion of the 'Fat Man' atom bomb, however winds on the day moved the bomb towards the hills of Urakami, which was close to the Mitsubishi Shipyards.

		Urakami Muramune began the fighting by sending his troops across the river bed, compelling Matsuda to commit the bulk of his forces from Kasaiyama.
		The result was a victory for the Urakami and Ukita, with the Matsuda retreating from the field.
		By this point he was the most powerful lord in Bizen and had openly defied the Urakami in 1575, fighting a string of engagements with their retainers that year.

	Takashi Nagai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		His sentimental and religious take on the atomic bombing of Nagasaki, excogitated throughout his various writings on that city's atomic experience, earned him the affectionate title of the "Saint of Urakami" even before his death in 1951.
		The many works of Nagai Takashi enjoyed a large readership during the American Occupation of Japan (1945-1952) because they were the most published and provided a rare source of information about the atomic bombings.
		Nagai's popularity as an atomic-bomb experience lexicographer with a sentimental and religious character led him to be called in his own lifetime the "Saint of Urakami" (also "Saint of Nagasaki"), and his works continue to maintain their popularity as atomic-bomb literature even today.

		Those old enough to remember the death and destruction visited on the city fifty years ago by a single atomic bomb, will once again relate their tales of survival and mourn the loss of their friends and loved ones who perished that sultry August morning.
		The explosion occurred over Urakami Valley, the heart of Catholicism in Japan, and the home of Christian believers who had kept their faith alive in spite of hundreds of years of government persecution.
		Urakami Cathedral was less than 2500 feet away from Ground Zero, and everyone praying there that morning died instantly.

		Known as Urakami, the district around the hypocenter (ground zero) area had been populated for centuries by Japanese people of the Roman Catholic faith.

		The industrial and school zones of the Urakami district lay to the east of the Urakami River, while the congested residential district of Shiroyama stretched to the hillsides on the west side of the river.

		The Roman Catholic cathedral of Urakami (built in 1959 to replace the original 1914 cathedral that was destroyed by the bomb) overlooks the park.

	CND - Peace Education - The impact of the bombing on Nagasaki
		Due to the hilly geography of Nagasaki and the bombing focus being away from the city centre, the excessive damage from the bombing was limited to the Urakami Valley and part of downtown Nagasaki.
		The centre of Nagasaki, the harbour, and the historic district were shielded from the blast by the hills around the Urakami River.
		The fact that the Nagasaki bomb was more powerful (see The Atomic Bomb) and also the narrowing effect of the surrounding hills did mean that physical destruction in the Urakami Valley was even greater than in Hiroshima.

		While this scenic, southern Japanese port city has seen a striking recovery, with tourists filling its shopping arcades and its streets bustling like those of any other city of its size, at Urakami church time has yet to heal the wounds of the attack.
