I Go to Former Uwaoka Elementary School

 

I went to a monument of a former elementary school in Daigo-machi town, Kitaibaraki city.

The name of the school was Uwaoka Elementary School. The school had been build in 1879 and closed in 2001.

Now, it was open for tourists for free of charge.

I Go To ”Hotel Nagomi” in Tochigi Prefecture

The hotel we stayed was quite unique, it had a previous elementary school which was built in 1934. Visitors to the hotel were able to see the site for free.

The school was registered as a tangible cultural property on February 4, 2021.

It reminded me of the days I was a little kid and friends with whom I played at that time.

The last four pictures were taken by my wife Kiyono.
