The town of Tan Tan, with its marketplace that was rebuilt after the war / Walking around the reconstructed city of Kobe Nada (Hyogo Prefecture)
This time, we are in Nada Ward, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture. We will start from Oji Zoo and walk around the Suido-suji Shopping Street. Oji Zoo is famous for the giant panda "Tintin", who passed away in March 2024 at the age of 28. Since coming to the zoo in 2000, "Tintin" has been giving courage and hope to many Kobe citizens who were hurt by the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake for about 24 years. This time, I visited to pay my respects, and there were many bouquets of flowers offered at the panda house where "Tintin" lived, and I was touched by how much he was loved. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all those involved who have worked hard to raise and treat him even after his heart disease was discovered.
Near Oji Zoo is Oji Koen Station on the Hankyu Kobe Line. Suido-suji stretches straight east from there, and water pipes are laid underneath it, and a shopping street characterized by a 450m straight arcade and a streetscape of wooden stores lined up in strips is formed on top of it. Along the way, shopping streets branch off in a north-south direction (Nada Center Shopping Street and Nada Chuosuji Shopping Street), and further north to Suidosuji Shopping Street there are markets such as Nada Central Market, Hatahara Market (no longer in existence), Hatahara East Market, Higashi Hatahara Market, and Hatahara East Shopping Street. These commercial streets are said to have originated in the Taisho era, but the streetscape we see today was rebuilt after the air raids of World War II.
Suidosuji Shopping Street was once very lively, but now the shutters of the markets are noticeable and the former bustle has faded. However, it is filled with the unique charm of such markets, and with ingenuity in town planning and disaster prevention measures in sight, it is a very enjoyable space to walk around.
