STORY: Residents of Fukushima city rallied against nuclear power on the day, where the rest of the nation commemorated the victims of the triple disaster of March 11, 2011.
A nine magnitude earthquake triggered a massive tsunami which hit a wide swathe of Japan's northeastern coastline, including Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant some 50 kilometers (31 miles) from the city.
The tsunami destablised the three of the reactors at the plant, which then went into meltdown and triggered an evacuation order that forced more than 150,000 people from their homes in the surrounding region.
