横網町公園 隅田川下町散歩 蔵前 横網町 本所 A stroll along the river in Tokyo suburbs
以前都営線の江戸川駅のポスターで見た墨田区の横網町公園に
行ってきました。そのあと隅田川沿いを散歩しましたが今回の眼目はこの横網町公園の訪問です。
平井の河津桜を撮影したあと、途中の蔵前から行けることを思い出して行ってきましたが
この平和そうな公園はかなり意外な由来を持つ公園です。
復興記念館の展示品を見ればわかることですがここは1923年の関東大震災で最も大きな死者を出した場所の名残です。
ここで38000人もの人が死んでいます。この狭い公園でです。東日本大震災は行方不明を合わせて2万人強でしたからそれをゆうに超えます。
この38000もの人たちは震災を逃れて避難してきた人たちです。つまり地震そのもので死んだわけではなく、これは東日本大震災の多くの地域と共通しています。
彼らはその後の火災で死んだのです。
避難してきた彼らは燃えやすいものを家財としてたくさん持ち込んでいた上に、震災の時、あまり知られていませんが台風が日本に来ており、その強い風にあおられて木造建築も多かったであろう当時の東京の火災はますます強まったのだそうです。最終的に彼らが避難の際に持ち込んだ布や、布団のような家財道具に日は燃え移り、狭いこの場所で4万近い人たちが隙間なくぎゅうぎゅう詰めになっていたこともあって避難民は皆焼け死んだということです。
驚かされるのは関東大震災では10万5千もの人が亡くなったそうですが、そのほとんど40パーセント近い人たちがこの狭い公園で焼け死んでいるという事実です。
僕もこれは教科書にもなかなか載っていない事実で非常に驚きました。
東日本大震災でも思いましたが、今の日本というのは地震そのものには耐える力はあるようですが、副次的に起こる火災や津波のような悲劇により注意を向ける必要がある。
地震そのものでも死ぬ可能性は高いがその余波として起こる別な事象を生き延びなければ災害を生き抜くことは難しいということでしょう。
非常にショックを受けて、この事実を未来に残す手伝いがしたいと、このような動画を作りました。
もう一つ、ここは東京大空襲の死者を弔う場所であることも見落とせません。
とても感じのいい公園ですから是非訪れてみてほしいと思います。
千鳥ヶ淵や靖国神社もいいでしょうが、劣らぬ価値があります。真の歴史を伝えるものです。
After leaving Hiarai town in Edogawa ward,Tokyo
I visited Yokoamicho Koen Park in Sumida ward.
When I knew this park is not so before,about two weeks before when I stayed in Edogawa station on Keisei railway line and I saw a poster on the board and then I knew information about this park.
As you see in this movie,this park is now an ordinary park where lots of family come to play or for a walk.
I was surprised at the things displayed in the museum(memorial hall of Tokyo restoration) and I knew this park is the place where the largest number of people
died when Kanto great earthquake had occurred.
It is told that a number of the dead was about 38000 and a total number of the dead at Kanto Great earthquake was over105000,so about 40 percent of the dead died here.
The reason why such many people died here is great fire occurred after great earthquake.
Originally 38000 people were the ones who survived after earthquake and evacuated and then reached this park.
But unfortunately at the same time,great typhoon came to Japan then and it made the force of fire that broke out right after the earthquake and the fire expanded over large area in Tokyo and reached this park at last.
Addition to that,the people evacuated took their belongings and the materials of them were easy to be burnt like products of fabric or clothing.
This park is not so large,in other words,too small to accept all the people and as the result,there were not enough space between people who gathered to this park.
They were burnt and died due to such horrible circumstances.
I was so shocked and decided to make movie about this park and its memorial hall.
The memorial hall has been under construction and it seems impossible to enter.
I’m so sorry that this time I could not see and shoot the inside of the hall.
I hope people in Tokyo or Kanto area to go to this park and enter the museum
and to know about what Kanto Great earthquake was actually.
After that,I enjoyed strolling around Tokyo suburbs along Sumida river,it was so fun and the scenes of dusk was really good.
A color of the sky was wonderful.

SUMMARY
=======
The Bombing of Tokyo (東京大空襲, Tōkyōdaikūshū) was a series of firebombing air raids by the United States Army Air Forces during the Pacific campaigns of World War II. Operation Meetinghouse, which was conducted on the night of 9–10 March 1945, is regarded as the single most destructive bombing raid in human history. 16 square miles (41 km2) of central Tokyo were destroyed, leaving an estimated 100,000 civilians dead and over 1 million homeless.
The US first mounted a seaborne, small-scale air raid on Tokyo in April 1942. Strategic bombing and urban area bombing began in 1944 after the long-range B-29 Superfortress bomber entered service, first deployed from China and thereafter the Mariana Islands. B-29 raids from those islands began on 17 November 1944, and lasted until 15 August 1945, the day of Japanese surrender.Over 50% of Tokyo's industry was spread out among residential and commercial neighborhoods; firebombing cut the whole city's output in half. Some post-war analysts have called the raid a war crime due to the targeting of civilian infrastructure and the ensuing mass loss of civilian life..

SUMMARY
=======
The Great Kantō earthquake (関東大地震, Kantō dai-jishin) struck the Kantō Plain on the Japanese main island of Honshū at 11:58:44 JST (02:58:44 UTC) on Saturday, September 1, 1923. Varied accounts indicate the duration of the earthquake was between four and ten minutes.The earthquake had a magnitude of 7.9 on the moment magnitude scale (Mw ), with its focus deep beneath Izu Ōshima Island in Sagami Bay. The cause was a rupture of part of the convergent boundary where the Philippine Sea Plate is subducting beneath the Okhotsk Plate along the line of the Sagami Trough.
