Bok Gardens Japanese Lantern.


The Japanese stone lantern was a gift of Usaburo Tsujita of Tokyo, member of Edward Bok's staff fro 1922 to 1925. The lantern representing seven years of his savings, is placed within direct sight of the grave of Edward Bok as a tribute and symbolizes, with its encircling doves, humanity's universal hope for world peace.

One last photo at Kasuga-taisha 春日大社 before I started walking back to the train station, via the backstreets, across the painted manhole covers of deer and trees and past a few mysterious BNE WATER ORG stickers that were briefly a source of entertainment for some.
