And, as tourists, we often forget the influence we can have on the places that we visit, even in intangible ways. If you’ve ever visited a more remote place in Japan, or gone to a restaurant in Tokyo that rarely serves foreigners, you might get a small sense of what this is like. A brief visit can become the topic of conversations for the next several days. That feeling is multiplied tenfold for the people of this rebuilding community. “For the people of Rikuzentakata, your presence as a foreign visitor means more than you could imagine. It gives them a source of inspiration and strength. Of course, if you’re in the mood to be an instant celebrity, you’ll have that. But it will be something that the people of the city won’t soon forget. It will be something that they will be talking about for weeks.”
Rather than a luxurious stay and a heavy travel itinerary, a visit to Rikuzentakata is more about taking in the land and meeting people. One of the most powerful sights around Rikuzentakata is the Miracle Pine. The tree finally succumbed to the heavy salinity of the soil following the tsunami, but a tree-shaped monument has been constructed, which contains part of the original tree at its top.
