Geocache Description:


There is a monument in a big housing complex.
The domestic first interchange-type electric fan is the 'Typhoon' that Kawakita Electric company(forerunner of Matsushita Ecosystems) released in 1913.
There is a commentary, "it is the ruins of the factory which this ground passes in approximately one century, and produced electric fans more than 100 million totals" on this monument.
 
Placed a spoiler pic of the monument, because I think that looking for the monument seems to be more difficult than a search of the cache.
 


-----Japanese-----
大きな団地の中にあるモニュメントがあります。
国産初の交流式扇風機は川北電気(松下エコシステムズの前身)が1913年に発売した「タイフーン」です。
このモニュメントには「この地は、およそ一世紀にわたり累計一億台以上の扇風機を生産した工場の跡地です」との解説があります
 
キャッシュを探すよりモニュメントを探すほうが難しそうなのでモニュメントのスポイラーを載せておきます。
