From the Edo Era to the Present.
The History of “Telecommunications”
in the Dojima Region

During the past 300 years from the Edo era to present day, the Dojima region had a deep bond regarding “Telecommunication.” Edo’s Middle Period. It was the time Dōjima Rice Exchange was established in the region as a place for collecting rice from all across Japan. The way to communicate the market price of rice, called the “Hata-Furi Tsushin (Flag Waving Communication)”, was developed here in Dojima to notify other regions. By placing relay points on mountains or towers and using a flag size of a tatami mat (1.82 x 1.82 meters), market prices were said to be notified throughout West Japan, faster than a Hikyaku messenger (12 km per minute).

20th Century. What took the place of hata-furi as a means of communication were the telegram and telephone. In 1927, both the Osaka Central Telegraph Office and the Osaka Central Telephone Office were established in Dojima, playing an integral role in West Japan’s telegram and telephone infrastructure.

Later in 1974, construction of the NTT DATA Dojima Building was completed. Although it has now become typical, this was a forerunner in the high-rise building-type data centers, and it has continued to support the communications traffic of West Japan.
