SEE & DO

Karakuwa Visitor Center, Tsunami Experience Hall
This facility introduces the nature, people’s lives and culture of Karakuwa Peninsula. Photographs show the after-tsunami condition of fishing ports and shopping streets, as well as plants that color the four seasons. The “Tsunami Experience Hall” is the first tsunami pseudo-experience hall in Japan that combines video, sound, vibration, and artificial wind. In the renewal after the Great East Japan Earthquake, the video of the 2011 disaster was added, and the content was updated with an emphasis on disaster prevention education.
