The time has arrived for us to make the transition from natural to urban landscape once again, as we head into the final stretch of this fulfilling summer programme. After a frantic half an hour of ferocious packing (my bag seemed to have gotten heavier!), we made our way to the Earthquake Museum by bus. There, we got to observe the remains and vestiges of rubble in an area tremendously devastated by the 1999 921 Ji-ji earthquake. It is amazing how they managed to preserve. There were various exhibitions to showcase the causation of earthquakes, methods of prevention and damage limitation. Previously, I've learnt some rudimentary facts about earthquakes in geography classes, but those were merely lessons in a classroom environment.
