Left deeply scarred by the tsunami, Minamisanriku is one of many cities that have begun preserving the individual memories of the disaster. The Great East Japan Earthquake Memorial Facility, known as the Minamisanriku 311 Memorial, also bears witness to efforts by the community to rebuild from the devastating twin punches of the 2011 earthquake and tsunami. Standing against the backdrop of Sanriku’s lush cedar forests, the site was designed by Kengo Kuma, the renowned architect behind Tokyo’s National Stadium, to visually connect with the land and its people. Kuma’s design is more than just an architectural marvel it is a homage to a community’s strength and perseverance.
