Tokyo Family Fun Spot: Don't Miss the Fire Museum! (2)🚒

The Taisho era witnessed the Great Kanto Earthquake, which devastated Tokyo. 🍃🌸 In response, large Mercedes-Benz fire trucks were introduced, and this year marks their 100th anniversary. These trucks have been well-maintained and still look very stylish. 🍃🌸During the Showa era, Tokyo was almost reduced to ashes by the Great Tokyo Air Raids in World War II. After the war, helicopters🚁 and maritime rescue boats began to be used, and firefighting suits became increasingly scientific. Japan is a country prone to natural disasters such as earthquakes and typhoons. 🍃🌸 The history of firefighting is also a history of the local people's struggle against disasters. Learning about this history not only educates but also enhances awareness of fire prevention, which is very beneficial. The museum is conveniently located, just a short walk from Exit 2 of Yotsuya-Sanchome Station. 🍃🌸 It's free to attend, open from 9:30 to 17:00, and closed on Mondays. If you have time, definitely take your kids there for a visit. #FamilyTime #Museum #YotsuyaSanchome #FamilyOuting 🌟
