What ever became of Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

I would assume they are still radioactive at the least...

Did the government build over it? Is it just a wasteland?

Anyone have anything better than an educated guess?

    They rebuilt the cities and put up a memorial in both places.

    No it's not radioactive anymore. Remeber these were the first nuclear bombs with low yeilds.

    Source(s): Visited there while stationed in Japan.

    There are cities there, and they are actually very nice cities. there is still some radiation problems though and some people are developing cancer at a higher rate in those cities.

    Educated guess? lol......you have got to be kidding me. This is 2009....we don't need to guess what Japan looks like. Apparently you do not know how to use the net to see this for yourself.

    Go to Japan. They are rebuilt cities, thriving with people and business.

    They rebuilt the cities. There is probably still some residual radiation, but not in deadly amounts.
