Yokota travel series: Japan’s ice and wind cave
An ancient shelving unit sits on display at the Fugaku Fuketsu Wind Cave in Yamanashi, Japan, Sept. 5, 2015. Up until the beginning of the Showa era, the cave was used as a refrigerator to store silkworm eggs. The cold air keeps the silkworms from changing into moths, which in turn extends the time the silkworm can produce silk. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Michael Washburn/Released)
