Fukusaki's Artistic Charm: A Journey Beyond Tokyo

Ciao, art and travel aficionados! I recently embarked on a fascinating journey to Fukusaki, a hidden gem in Japan known for its unique and captivating statues. My adventure began in the vibrant metropolis of Tokyo.


From Tokyo to Fukusaki

Touching down in Tokyo, I was immediately swept up in the city's dynamic energy. After a couple of days exploring its mix of modernity and tradition, I embarked on a journey to Fukusaki. The train ride, transitioning from the bustling urban landscape to serene rural sceneries, was a travel experience in itself.


The Statues of Fukusaki

Upon arriving in Fukusaki, I found myself in a different world. Here, the town's artistic spirit is displayed through an array of intriguing statues adorning the streets. Each


sculpture, ranging from whimsical figures to thought-provoking pieces, seemed to tell its own story, reflecting the town's rich culture and history.


Immersed in Art and Serenity

Wandering through Fukusaki was like strolling through an open-air art museum. I spent hours meandering, captivated by each statue, feeling a deep connection to the artistic soul of this charming town.


My trip from the electric streets of Tokyo to the quiet, artistic haven of Fukusaki was a journey through Japan's diverse facets. Fukusaki, with its unique blend of art and community, left an indelible impression on me, a testament to the lesser-known treasures waiting to be discovered in Japan.


Until our next artistic discovery,

Marco Valenti
