    Tokyo Ogasawaramura Hahajima Moto
    A local folk history museum operating out of a restored Taisho period sugar storehouse made out of Ogasawara Ross stone. Ross stone is a stone material used for building; its name is derived from Frederick Rohlfs, a German man who resided on Hahajima Island at the end of the Edo period and who discovered the stone. Inside, the museum displays whaling tools used by early island residents, takonoha-zaiku screwpine leaf work dating to the Meiji period, and maps and old photographs which their everyday lives on the island were revealed. The historic building itself has been designated a Tangible Cultural Property by the Tokyo metropolitan government. The museum also holds classes which teach how to make takonoha-zaiku screwpine leaf work.

    ロース石というのがこの島にあって、それを使った産業をやっていたドイツ人がいたというのが、そもそもびっくり。 本土に強制移住させられたから、母島の産業は以前と全く変わってしまいましたが、このような施設がきちんと保存されて、公開されているということに、東京都の財力の凄さを感じました。 父島へ行ったら、母島へも行くべきだと思います。

    Tokyo Ogasawara village Chichijima west-cho 35

    私は旅をしている最中に日曜日があると、それがどこであっても、その土地の教会を訪れて、礼拝に参加させていただきます。 この教会は、日本で一番特別な教会だと思いました。 元から小笠原の住民だったミクロネシア人、捕鯨英国人の子孫、そして後から来た日本人。これらの３種類の人たちが、みんな揃って神様にお祈りをしていました。 私にとって本当に貴重な時間でした。 捕鯨英国人が設立した教会なので、英国国教会になる...

The setting of countless iconic movie scenes and the inspiration for songs, poetry, and literature worldwide, Tokyo barely requires an introduction. It’s hard for the kaleidoscopic neon lights, wacky pop culture, and some of the world’s tallest structures not to instill excitement in any first-time visitor to Tokyo, whether you’re in the very center of the hustle and bustle in Shinjuku or Shibuya or looking in from the quieter suburbs.
