Fifty years have passed since the Izu Peninsula Offshore Earthquake that struck at 8:33 a.m. on May 9, 1974. Some black-and-white photos, with a few in color, that were held by the Minami-Izu Town Tourism Association at the time still remain; their condition is poor, but we are publishing them in the hope they will help future earthquake preparedness. At that time, tourism had been growing in Minami-Izu Town—sparked by the opening of the Izu Kyuko Line in 1961 and the opening of the Margaret Line in 1972 (which was made free in 1983)—and the local economy was becoming increasingly dependent on tourism when tragedy struck again. A series of disasters followed: the Aono River flood caused by heavy rains in July 1976, the Kawazu Earthquake in August of the same year, and the offshore Izu Oshima earthquake in 1978. Infrastructure development could not keep up, and visitor numbers plummeted. Nevertheless, the town gradually overcame those immense hardships and slowly rebuilt. Today, summer draws large numbers of visitors to the area. From a global perspective, earthquakes are natural events like typhoons, so it is extremely important to prepare for disasters based on past lessons and to pass those lessons on to future generations. What was the Izu Peninsula Offshore Earthquake? It was a shallow earthquake with its epicenter off Cape Irozaki that occurred at 8:33 a.m. on May 9, 1974, with a magnitude of 6.9. The quake caused tremendous damage: 38 people were killed or went missing, and approximately 370 buildings were completely or partially destroyed. Date and time: May 9, 1974, 8:33 a.m. Magnitude: 6.9 Fatalities and missing: 38 people Damage (complete and partial collapse): about 370 buildings

This is one of the mountain trails in Hyogo Prefecture, the former Fukuchiyama Line Abandoned railway lines! It used to be a coal mine, and the site where the railway was used as a transportation route is now known as a mountain trail full of nature. While it is an abandoned railway line and you can feel the history and remnants of the past, it is an easy-to-walk mountain trail with plenty of nature and not many ups and downs, so I personally would like to recommend it to those who want to enjoy hiking with parents and children.

Eph: "Take me!"

Hyogo Prefecture Tamba Sasayama City 倶利伽羅不動の滝 The stone statue Fudoson, located in the highest village in the city, is said to have been erected in the 2nd year of the Ming calendar 1656.

That was three years ago, when I visited Kyoto for the second time. Ryoanji Temple was closed for renovation work and I was at a loss. At that time, there was a Ninnaji temple nearby, and I decided to head there. Sohonzan of the Shingon sect Sohonzan Omuro sect. It was December when I felt warmth as well as beauty.

I also went to Aoyama Flower Market Tea House Akasaka Biz Tower store. Mother's Day was approaching, so the table was decorated with yellow carnations. It is herbal tea and rose jelly.

The stone camphor tree flowers of Mt. Koya, Wakayama Prefecture, a World Cultural Heritage Site, are in full bloom. The photo shows Kongobong Temple.

To the final destination of this trip, Nanzenji Temple. I don't know how many days I waited to see this gate, but it feels like a long time. This gate sat majestically as if it had been waiting. I forgot to point to my umbrella and stood there dumbfounded.

GW Tokyo Tower.　 GW: Tokyo Tower, which has been around for a long time, is full of children and foreign tourists, including the surrounding parks. On this day, the wind was calm and many tourists climbed the stairs of the tower on foot, making it lively. … But it's calm, so the energy of the Carp streamers is not good ... However, even if the wind doesn't blow much, if you tilt the camera to the side, the carp will climb the tower energetically, not just the carp waterfall climbing.

The Great Torii shrine gate gate of Itsukushima Shrine The Great Torii shrine gate, which can be said to be the symbol of Itsukushima Shrine, was built in 1168 Nian 3 with the assistance of Taira Kiyomori, famous for "The Tale of the Heike".

Sendai Domain Ancestor Date Masamune Koreiya Zuihoden Built in 1637, this building is the shrine of Prince Date Masamune It is a gorgeous mausoleum building that retains the relics of the Azuchi-Momoyama culture that lasted from 1568 ~ 1600, and was designated as a national treasure in 1931 It was later destroyed by fire, but it was rebuilt in 1979 and still faces the land of Sendai from a hill

Tomi City, Nagano Prefecture Kanou School Building This school was built in Meiji 12 1879. It is the oldest school building in the prefecture after the Nakagome School in Saku and the Kaichi School in Matsumoto, and the oldest school building in the Ueda and Oken regions. This school building was built by the enthusiastic love of education of the Japanese villagers. The aim was to cultivate a "Japanese soul and Western talent" type of person whose mind is Japanese and whose knowledge is Western culture. ⭐︎Key points ⭐of this photo︎ 　The roof is a structure that is often seen in temples and shrines, called a thatched main house, and the devil's face at the eaves is also characteristic Dragon Tiger Confucius Mencius.

Kitakuni Highway "Unno Yado" The townscape of Unno Yado is a traditional style of houses in harmony with the thatched-roof buildings of the Edo period and the robust silkworm buildings of the Meiji era and later. The irrigation water streams in the center of the road and the beautiful houses with lattice doors on both sides of it make you feel a quiet atmosphere reminiscent of a historical hometown. History of Unno Yado Unno Yado was opened in the 2nd year of Kanei 1625 as a inn station in Kitakuni Highway. The Kitakuni Highway is an important highway connecting the Nakasendo Highway and the Hokuriku Expressway. In addition to the transportation of gold mined in Sado and the change of attendance of the daimyo of Hokuriku, there was also frequent traffic with Edo, and there were many pilgrims to Zenkoji. After the adjacent Tanaka inn was damaged by the great flood in Kanho 2 and the main camp was moved to Unno Yado, it was very busy, with 59 denma houses and 23 hatago. After the Shukuba-juku function was lost in the Meiji era, it moved to a sericulture village. Since the traditional houses of Unno Yado have been preserved to this day, it was selected as one of the "100 Best Roads in Japan" in 1986 Showa 61 and as an "Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings" in 62. ⭐︎Highlights ⭐of this photo︎ 　In the Edo period inn-style building, the second floor is more protruding than the first floor. It is said that it is a consideration so that travelers do not get wet when getting ready on rainy days.

Speaking of famous warlords of the Sanada clan, "Sanada Yukimura Sanada Nobushige" Sanada Yukimura, who played an active role in chasing down "Tokugawa Ieyasu" in the "Osaka Natsujin" in 1615 Keicho 20, and "Sanada Masayuki" Sanada Masayuki, who defeated Tokugawa Ieyasu's large army twice, are famous. In addition, as a conspiracy general of "Takeda Shingen" bosho: a general who excelled in strategy, "Sanada Yukitaka" Sanada Yukitaka, who was said to be inferior to Takeda Shingen, can be mentioned. Prior to the establishment of the Shukuba town, Unno Yado was called "Unno-go" or "Umino-sho" and was the birthplace of the Umino clan, a branch of the Shigeno clan of Shinshu, which is said to be the root of the Sanada clan, from Heian to Kamakura and the Sengoku period. ⭐︎Key points ⭐of this photo︎ This is the current state of the main team. When you open the gate, you will be greeted by a magnificent tree. In addition, one of Sanada Yukimura's entourage, "Umino Rokuro" Unnorokuro, whose name also appears in the creative vassal group "Sanada Ten Brave Warriors" Sanada Ju Yuushi, is also said to have been from this area. In 1583 Tensho 11, Masayuki Sanada moved the shrine and town from Umino to Ueda when he built "Ueda Castle" Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture. After that, the village was reduced and Unno Yado was established as an "inn station on the snow country highway".

It's called "Honudatsu" and it's from the Edo period. There is also a "sleeve udatsu", which is from the Meiji era. Neither of these was something that could only be done from a wealthy family. It is from this place that the phrase "depression does not rise" was born.

Today in Akasaka, I met up with a friend. This kind of time is precious. This is Bilbokeh's lunch plate. It is a quiche, a pork tart, and a terrine. Bilboquet means kendama in French.

It is 🌾 a view that seems to have gone back in time to [Betsumiya Terraced Rice Fields] in Yabu City, Hyogo Prefecture

Kyoto is no longer the home of the Japanese people. It makes me sad to think about it, but it may be becoming true. However, I would like to see only the Tochi-in Temple, which is related to many warlords such as Fukushima Masanori, in our hometown. Now I just enjoy the garden that no one knows.

3 minutes walk from Kyoto National Museums. Kayakuni Shrine dedicated to Hideyoshi. It seems that the Karamon gate that was originally located in Nanzenji Temple Totou Kinjiin was relocated. It used to be in Nijo Castle, and before that it was in Fushimi Castle. It is a wonderful Karamon that conveys the opulence of the Momoyama period. In front of the gate, two bows, two applause, one bow.

Nanzenji Temple Totou Tenjoan, I walked in the midst of the rain. Someone once said that it is the Japanese sensibility to enhance the beauty of water as it is and feel the beauty. I see. Was this what it was?

Kanchi-in, a temple near Toji Temple. One of the hidden gems known only to those in the know. From the guest hall, a national treasure where Miyamoto Musashi is said to have stayed, you can see the garden of dry mountain water and the five-story pagoda. The view from the bullet train is quaint, but the five-story pagoda seen from here is also beautiful.
