Stuff to do in Japan

Tokyo Fire Department Training Centre called 'Bousaikan' in Japanese.
Students are divided into groups of approximately 15. Firstly 3D big screen will show them what dangers are hidden in an earthquuake situation. They are also trained through simulations (Fire fighting, Smoke Maze, First aid, Earthquake and Rain storm). Your students will love these simulation experiences as they are fun. They can also challenge Q & A (Training Performance Evaluation Section) using computers after that. There must be an interpreter (teacher) for each group as the instructor speaks Japanese only.
There are a few Bousaikan in Tokyo, but I recommend 'Honjo Bosaikan' 10 minutes walk from Kinshi-cho Station. Another Bousaikan I recommend is at Ikebukuro (7minutes walk from Ikebukuro West Exit), but I think that Honjo is better. The cost is free, but you need to book beforehand. Their website is
