International cooperation by GPS art of “C” onto Sasebo! From April 20, 2024 (Saturday) to May 31, 2024, a new project of “Walk in Her Shoes 2024”, “Let’s Walk and Draw “C” on the Earth! Let’s start GPS art!
Walk in Her Shoes 2024″ is an international cooperation program to raise awareness about global water issues and the current situation of women and girls in developing countries by simply walking at a time and place of your choice. Let’s draw the “C” of CARE with GPS art and send it to the world!
This course takes you on a walk through the center of the Hario Transmitting Station, where you can draw GPS art. This radio transmitting station was built by the Imperial Japanese Navy in the Taisho era. Three radio towers spanning a height of just over 130 meters were built, and it is the only existing tower-like structure built in the Taisho era (1912-1926) and is designated as a National Important Cultural Property. Please try it when you visit Sasebo City!
