Neodani Fault

Thick tail earthquake による fault

Original Text

The Neoya fault is an active fault that stretches 80km from the Noo earthquake in 1891. You can see the fault cliff (deviation of the upper and lower sides of the land) about a 5-minute walk from Tarumi Railway Mizutori Station. However, since it is not a conspicuous terrain, you may not notice it as a fault cliff without a signboard. Near this fault cliff is the earthquake fault observation hall, where you can see real fault sections indoors.

I don't know if you don't know.

About ５ minutes by car from Usumi Sakura Park. Neoya fault that appeared in textbooks. If there is no signboard, it will pass normally. It's now a corner of ordinary farmland, so even if there is a signboard, you'll probably not notice it unless you look closely. But if you look closely, it's somewhat unnatural and you're convinced as a fault. I wonder if the energy that moves the ground so much is amazing, and I am amazed at the magnitude of the force of nature.

a bank? no, it's a fault.

A short walk south from Tarumi Railway Mizutori Station. You can see the view from the nearby tour space and observatory. If you look north along the road, you can see the bank beside the farmland. Somehow an unnatural straight slope. I found out, "Is this a fault?" I learned again how terrible the earthquake in the Meiji era was and the threat of the earthquake.

I realized the awesomeness of the earthquake

Original Text

The Neoya fault is the earthquake fault that appeared on the surface of the earth during the Noo earthquake, which was an inland earthquake of M8.0 that caused great damage to Gifu, Aichi, and Fukui during the Meiji period. The photo immediately after the earthquake of the 5m-high fault cliff that appeared in the rice field was also listed in the social textbook. Even today, the fault cliff is preserved as a natural monument of the country. At the earthquake fault observation hall on the fault, you can witness the fact that the fault has shifted 6m up and down in the basement. It is a little 1km downstream from the thin ink cherry blossoms.

i'm surprised at the huge deviation of the fault!

I remember learning from a geography class in junior high school that the Neodani fault was formed by the Noo earthquake in the Meiji period. I only saw it in the textbook photos, and I was surprised to see the fault with my own eyes. At first, it only looked like a embankment was diagonally left from the road. I parked my car in a parking space on the side of the road, and took a closer look at the signboards and information boards again and realized that the fault was greatly deviated. I was overwhelmed by the fierce power of nature.
