THE ASAHI SHIMBUN

A crane suspends a concrete slab that had been part of a protective firewall, as it is relocated to Hokudan Earthquake Memorial Park in Awaji, Hyogo Prefecture, on Tuesday. The so-called "Kobe Wall," measuring 7 meters high and 14 meters wide, was initially built 80 years ago at a public market in Nagata Ward in Kobe, and endured the Great Hanshin Earthquake in 1995. It was then taken to an Awaji municipal hall in Awaji city. The park, with a geological fault line that surfaced in the temblor, sees 300,000 visitors a year.(IHT/Asahi: November 27,2008)
