Thank you for being here 🙂 In this video, I visited Uchiko-town in ehime prefecture, the 5th prefecture out of my travel through all the 47 prefectures in Japan 🇯🇵

After spending several days in Matsuyama City, I headed to facilities and areas related to the Besshi Copper Mine, which laid the foundation for Niihama City’s development as an industrial city, following an overnight camping stay in Niihama. First, I visited the Besshi Copper Mine Museum. Here, I learned about the management history of this copper mine that built the prosperity of the Sumitomo family, one of Japan’s three major zaibatsu (industrial conglomerates), spanning about 300 years from the 17th century. Afterward, I took a bus to Minetopia Besshi, a theme park utilizing the former mine site, and to “Tounaru,” an area known as the Machu Picchu of the East, where industrial heritage sites of the Besshi Copper Mine still exist deep in the mountains of Niihama. With the poor weather with thick fog, I wondered how this Machu Picchu would appear…Please watch how it was like.

  1. That's some fairly miserable weather. I think I would have thrown in the towel on this one. But, thank you for seeing it through and posting it anyway.So, does Japan still mine copper in other locations or must they resort to importing it from other sources? May be one day you can stop by this place again when the weather is clear. Thank you for sharing your adventure. Have a safe journey.
