The six Catalan students visited the Hiroshima Campus to teach in the human tower workshop followed by a practical lesson on 13. On 14, they built a "pilar de dol" (tower of sorrow) dedicated to the victims of the atomic bomb and the disastrous heavy rain that severely hit the western Japan merely a week ago, in front of the Atomic Bomb Dome.

Their performance attracted many passengers and tourists , who helped us building the tower spontaneously.

A Catalan journalist, who visited Hiroshima just as a tourist, gave an interview to them. Her article was immediately published in Barcelona on the next morning.
