99 years have passed since the Great Kanto Earthquake (which occurred on September 1, 1923, magnitude 7.9), which caused great damage in Yokohama.
This time, under the theme of "bridges", which were severely damaged, aerial photographs taken from the city of Yokohama at the time of the Great Kanto Earthquake at 2,500 to 4,000 meters above the current topographic map were superimposed to show the damage and reconstruction at that time. We will hold a panel exhibition that shows the situation.
In the panel exhibition, with the cooperation of "Geo Kanagawa", panel exhibition commentary on the state of disaster and reconstruction will be performed.
