The coastal town of Rikuzentakata in Iwate Prefecture was one of the most heavily affected areas, with the entire town centre destroyed by the waves and thousands of lives lost.
In 2019, a new memorial museum was opened in Rikuzentakata to function both as an educational centre to spread the message of disaster prevention to future generations, as well as a provide a spiritual space to honor the memory of all those whose lives were lost or whose lives were changed forever.
On this tour, you will have the opportunity to hear first-hand stories of survival and recovery from a local guide as you tour the memorial museum.
