Abstract from event information:
“This place familiar to citizens as “Square for natural experience in Nakada-no-Mori”, was old Hino Mulberry Farm managed by Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry from the beginning of the Showa Era to the 55th year of Showa.
The farm conducted study on integration of silkworm eggs and quality of cocoons. After the facilities’ movement to Tsukuba, the enclosed site with fences has been isolated from the development of the surrounding areas. As a result, natural environment can be regenerated in the site within 20 years afterward.
……………
The deserted place left for nearly 30 years, and finally assimilated into surrounding forests is touching.
Such beautiful ruins can be rarely seen in changeable Tokyo.”
