Kagoshima City Tsunami Evacuation Buildings (Map is below)

It is estimated that if an earthquake centered directly under Kagoshima bay (Kinko bay) occurred, a tsunami would reach Kagoshima and Sakurajima ports 13 minutes after the earthquake occurred.

If you feel a big earthquake, it is important to evacuate to somewhere close rather than trying to escape to a distant higher place.

The buildings below are Tsunami Evacuation Buildings designated by Kagoshima city.

・ These buildings meet the latest earthquake resistance standards.
・ They are more than 3 story buildings (more than 9m high) and strongly constructed with reinforced concrete construction or steel-framed reinforced concrete construction.
・ These buildings are available 24 hours for evacuation.

The below is the Placemark for the Tsunami Evacuation Buildings.
