  • Kumamoto Prefecture Ryujabira Public Housing Complex
    Kumamoto prefecture Ryujabira Public Housing Complex Architectural Outline Two types of apartment buildings have been used to make effective use of an irregularly-shaped site. The site is in the form of two triangles, one large and one small. There is a stepped building type that is staggered in plan and has broad terraces. The other type is all pilotis on the first floor; this creates visual continuity between the street and the inner part of the housing project, thus integrating the project with its environment. Buildings of these two types are arranged to form a courtyard. All units are approached by way of this courtyard. Spaces flow into each other, from the stairway and corridor to the terrace, concrete-floored space (doma) and living/dining room of each unit. Being able to sense each other's presence is expected to contribute to a greater awareness of community among the occupants.

  • The Authenticity of the Hidden Christians' Villages in Nagasaki: Issues in Evaluation of Cultural Landscapes
    sustainability Article The Authenticity of the Hidden Christians’ Villages in Nagasaki: Issues in Evaluation of Cultural Landscapes Tinka Delakorda Kawashima Graduate School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Hiroshima University, 1-1-1 Kagamiyama, Higashi-Hiroshima, Hiroshima 739-8524, Japan; [email protected]; Tel.: +81-82-424-6705 Abstract: Located in the north-western part of Kyushu, “Hidden Christians Sites in the Nagasaki Region” were designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2018. This serial property consists of twelve sites, including the Christian villages that bear unique testimony to a cultural tradition nurtured under a long period of religious prohibition. Based on fieldwork research at Kirishitan villages in Hirado City, this paper shows how the global conservation strategies affect the local people and the sustainability of their cultural tradition. Comparing UNESCO and Japanese cultural landscape protection policies, I argue that the evaluation and selection of sites that begin at the local authorities and stakeholders’ level, is eventually reduced to tangible properties ready-made for tourist consumption. Here, the evaluation subsides under the UNESCO authenticity criteria and narrow governmental interests towards the cultural tradition it is supposed to protect. Therefore, for the protection of cultural landscapes and the living traditions, the decisions by cultural heritage protection authorities should be carefully made, based on scientific research of a cultural tradition, and in the interest of the tradition’s living successors. Keywords: cultural landscape; authenticity; intangible heritage; cultural tradition; Hidden Christians; Citation: Delakorda Kawashima, T.

  • Aso-Kuju National Park Was Established in 1934
    An invigorating adventure for body and soul awaits amidst the fragrance of grasslands and the breath of Aso-Kuju volcanoes in a landscape in a constant state of renewal 18 Aso-Kuju National Park was established in 1934. Instantly recognizable by the impressive site of Mt. Aso standing National Park on the rim of a huge caldera crater, the vast Kuju Mountain Range which spreads to the north, as well as the verdant gentle grasslands that fill the area between them. The Aso Caldera is one of the world's largest calderas stretching 18 km from east to west and 25 km north to south. The surrounding grasslands were first formed by volcanic ash soil low in nutrition, and people have utilized the area for grazing animals for over a millennium. Today, the caldera島根県 is home to approximately 50,000 people, and it is the only caldera in the world in which a stable community has been built. The plains in the southern and northern parts of the caldera feature numerous rice paddies and crop fields, which are sustained by Asoʼs mineral-rich subsoil water. The vast grasslands have also been utilized to their full advantage for animal grazing and they are maintained thanks to the controlled burns that take place every year in mid-March. The 山口県 controlled burns help the growth of new grass, which is eaten by the Aka-ushi, Japanese brown cattle, just one part of local gastronomic tradition. The sight of farming communities amidst the caldera crater is a sight not to be forgotten 長崎県 and demonstrates the unique relationship the Japanese people have with their volcanic environement.
