Greetings Hivers,

Today I walked by this statue of Testujin (Iron man) near the JR Shin-Nagata station 🚆 in Kobe. The statue is said to be about eighteen metres high and weighs over 50 tonnes. If you are a fan of Japanese comics or anime, you may have heard of Gigantor.

They say the structure is a symbol of the restoration of Kobe since the 1995 earthquake. You may recall that over 6000 people died as a result of the 6.9 magnitude earthquake in January of 1995. If you're ever in the area, you can check it out this towering symbol of the restoration of this wonderful city.

Stay connected, stay blessed
