Visitors' Comments
"It was a very impressive photo exhibition. I understood very well the magnitude of the agony and desperation of the people in the disaster area and their struggle in rebuilding their life."
"The photos told me stories of how people stood up from the depth of sorrow and struggled to bring themselves back to life. They conveyed the pains of the families who lost their loved ones, but, at the same time, they also gave me hope for the recovery of the area damaged by the earthquake."
"I was deeply moved by the photos. I was especially impressed by the positive attitude the people are showing to move forward, and the power and strength of children in particular."
