Hachiko

Have you ever heard of Hachiko the dog? No? Neither had I until we visited Tokyo.

If you ever go to Japan then odds are you will hear about him. Hachiko is a national hero to the Japanese!

A dog so famous there have been several movies made about him. He has his own bronze statue next to Shibuya Train Station in Tokyo,

where every day hundreds of people have their photograph taken with him.
