{wiki=Hibakujumoku}
Hibakujumoku refers to trees that survived the atomic bombings in Japan during World War II, particularly those in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The term literally translates to "explosion-affected trees." These trees are significant as they symbolize resilience and recovery in the aftermath of the catastrophic events. Many hibakujumoku are now recognized as important historical and cultural artifacts. They have been studied to understand the effects of radiation on living organisms, and efforts have been made to preserve them.
