Iwasaki Yataro Monument
A bronze statue built in 1985 to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Yataro Iwasaki’s birth. It first stood in Kami-Gonokawa Park near Aki City Hall, but in 2015 it was relocated to his ancestral home. Wearing Japanese clothing and calling to mind Yataro standing and facing the sea, the large statue is 3.3 meters high with a one-meter base. The imposing figure has a special ambiance and is worth seeing. Many tourists pose with their right hands raised and take a photo, copying the powerful pose of this dignified figure facing the storms of his day.
