Great East Japan Earthquake
The Miracle Pine Tree, Rikuzentakata
On March 11, 2011, the Great East Japan Earthquake struck the Tohoku region of Japan, triggered by a massive magnitude 9.0 earthquake and tsunami. The tsunami devastated coastal areas and caused a serious accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant. The disaster claimed more than 20,000 lives and caused tremendous damage, making the subsequent reconstruction an urgent issue.
