Japan, why are you so hell-bent on destroying all of your pre-WWII architecture?

Japan, why are you so hell-bent on destroying all of your pre-WWII architecture?

Aren't they made out of mostly wood? Shit is gonna rot anyway

>origami large enough to walk inside of
>architecture
ok

because historically relevant structures are for those with no future. if you cling to old buildings sooner or later you wont have any room for anything else

that said anything that looks cool is given a pass until it becomes to much to maintain

Even a lot of non-wooden ones end up succumbing to the wrecking ball.

Pic related is made of concrete, and survived not only the Great Kanto Earthquake of 1924 but the firebombings of 1945. Demolished earlier this year.

Because they're still capable of building their traditional architectures, for every modern skyscraper they build, there's 10 paper houses and cottages being finished in the old style. If you're ever in Japan, visit have country, it's rich in pre-wwii architecture and blends seamlessly with the new. They were even building a new old-fashioned castle tower structure at the emperor's palace last time I was in Tokyo

Because it looks like shit and would cost too much in upkeep

Hm, I think they just don't care. I'm sure there are some Japanese who buy these sites as historical, but if nobody is gonna buy them or preserve them then another bidder comes along.

I'd like to visit Japan for way more than the typical weeb shit. Do people in the country hate Gaijin?

Japanese hates whites like whites hate Mexicans. It varies from person to person. Stay, they don't want you.

It's not the prettiest building but I think its historic significance trumps its appearance. The Germans don't tear down every building built before 1945, so I don't quite understand why the Japs do it.

Everyone everywhere hates foreigners. Country folk there are gonna hate you as much as country folk here hate foreigners. Your best shot is sticking to Tokyo where at least they're used to it and everything will be in English anyway.

>pre-WWII Japanese architecture
>still standing
I'm sure he had a serious conversation with his plane crews for that

What kinda stuff is there to do in Tokyo?

Good, fuck it's not like we personally brought them out of their medieval era in the 1800s.. It's not like Americans kept the soviets from turning Japan into a nk tier waste.

because it'd irradiated.

They prefer not to see foreigners as a general rule. People in Tokyo may huff or hiss at you under their breath when you stand on the wrong side of an escalator when they think you're not looking but they'll never mistreat you. They're just very uncucked and love their own. They won't treat you bad, they're polite hosts, last time a nice policeman went out of his way to make sure I got to the right train -- if you're respectful and don't come across as an obnoxious weeb, you'll have a good time. Just be smart with your money, even the cheapest hotels are really nice, there's a lot to appreciate. Yasukuni Shrine and the war museum are right next to the Imperial Palace. If you love history it's a must.

What's a white nation when all the whites want to watch tentacle porn with nips? Stay in your country faggot.

Well, Tokyo wasn't nuked and even back then it was a huge city, so it would have been impossible to destroy every single building.

I can believe it. They're only friendly because they want our resources. The same way were friendly with Saudi Arabia because we want they're oil.

I can't stress this enough.. Japanese despise weebs, especially foreign weebs coming to Japan treating their country like an amusement park.. It's a profound kind of disdain..

this fucking leaf is savage.

Ouch and kek.

Why do you care? Didn't you drop two bombs? Go back to your burger, you fat cunt.

Japanese construction is largely suppose to be rebuilt every couple generations. When selling a house or apartment that's more than a decade old the destruction of it is usually factored into the price.

Go back to your wife's bull, you emasculated cuck.

this is the most aggressive swede I've ever seen.. has to be a polish guy using proxy or something

>Role-playing

this is true, pretty much everytime a family buys a property they have a new house built for themselves from scratch

How do japs feel about blondies? Will I be bullied even worse than a regular gaijin?

you would know

u have anymore kool pics similar to that one?

because the japs are not as retarded as you are

>muuh subjective value
do you also collect your shits you unintelligent preservationist?

If japan wasnt friendly with us they would cease to exist. China is itching for a communist-style racial cleansing of japan.

Because earthquakes make them deathtraps.

It's just a safety issue really. A decent earthquake comes and anyone inside or standing beside it get squashed.

You realize wood structures dont last forever...

>another off topic jap thread

the city is obviously in a less than middle class neighborhood and yet the streets are still amazingly clean..

ITT burgers show their total lack of cultural sensibility.
Near my hometown a highway has been redrawn to avoid a simple tree. Nothing special, but people liked this tree. You can't understand.
