Meeting the Totoro statue in Takaharu, Miyazaki

On the second day, we went to some sightseeing spots such as Kareigawa Station in Kagoshima. 

First we went to the Totoro statue in Takaharu. Takaharu is a beautiful town located in the eastern foot of Mount Kirishima. 

Driving on National Highways 10 and 268, Miyazaki Prefectural Route 29 and passing through the town center, we came to the statue🗽

This statue of Totoro was made by a couple who turned 70 as a present for their grandchildren and children in commemoration of their 70th birthday. It was made with cement using the technique of 50 years of experience as a plasterer. Due to its high degree of perfection, it was introduced on news sites not only in Japan🗾 but around the world🗺😁

Tips when going to the Totoro statue in Takaharu town:

The statue is now a hotspot on social media📱 e.g. Instagram, but it's actually on the premises of the house🏡 I wish you don't shout all the time. And no trespassing at night🌙🙆

Thank you for your cooperation🙇
