What is MEGURU PROJECT 2023?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"2023<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

“MEGURU PROJECT 2023” is a 7-day comprehensive event where history meets cutting-edge technology, encompassing music, art, theater, and cuisine. Take a time-travel journey back to 170 years ago, during the historic arrival of Commodore Perry.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1853, four steamships led by Commodore Perry appeared in Uraga. Now, 170 years later, the Uraga Dock transforms into a mystical space where the “end of the Edo period” and the “modern day” intertwine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, we will create new tourist resources such as Uraga Port tour centered on Uraga, and implement initiatives to enhance the value as a tourist base in the eastern area centered on the Uraga area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
