11 years have now passed since the Great East Japan Earthquake where the Tohoku region of Japan suffered much damage. The region has seen much recovery and reconstruction in the years following the disaster with the Tokyo 2020 Games also providing an opportunity to show the ongoing reconstruction of the affected areas and gratitude to those around the world for their support.

The following three videos from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan give an insight into the resilience of the people of Tohoku, and introduces the attractiveness of the region. Please do take a look!
