19 days from the earthquake in Urayasu
Reading time: About 1 minute
19 days from the earthquake in UrayasuI went to Urayasu to see how it is after 19 days from the earthquake.
Urayasu is 30 min from Tokyo Station in Chiba prefecture. Urayasu is very well known as a prefecture where Tokyo Disney Land is located. Urayasu is a city that used to be under sea but reclaimed with ground. Therefore, Urayasu is very famous for its organized residences, bigger roads, and many beautiful parks.
However, because it was a place with reclaimed ground, the phenomenon of liquefaction had occurred. The road had changed it form and houses had tilted.
Also, water supplies and sewers were damaged. Because those had not been recovered yet, there were many reservoirs established.
On the other hand, there are places where it is recovered. So, we cannot say that whole Urayasu city is still in trouble, but moving forward little by little.
This earthquake had damaged Japan greatly. However, Japan has being recovered. I felt it when I saw the recovery in Urayasu.
