On a beautiful day in Spring (April 12) I decided to count and record the Kappa statues in the Kappabashi area of Shitamachi, Tokyo. If I missed one or two … please let me know in a comment!
(This guy looked a bit worse for wear. He had a wound in his right side, so I photographed him from the left.)
(Not sure of the story here. A young boy … carved in wood … wearing a Kappa on his head. Can anyone help?)
Oohh!! So that’s what a Kappa looks like. I was kinda imagining them a bit differently. . . Thanks for the pictures!
