Nagasaki 🇯🇵 Ryoma Boots Statue

A large boot suddenly appeared in a wide-view space just a few steps away from Kameyama Shrine! These bronze "Dragon Boots" were built in 1995 at the request of the citizen group "Kameyamasha Junior High School Utilization Association" to commemorate the 130th anniversary of the founding of Kameyamasha Junior High School. The maker of the statue is Kazukuni Yamazaki from Nagasaki, who is responsible for the "Sakamoto Ryoma Statue" in Fukuto Park. Since the founding of Kameyama Shoe College was the first step in our country's modernization, Ryoma chose Ryoma's trademark boots in the hope of helping people gain a deeper understanding of Nagasaki's history and culture. #2024TravelReview
