Introduction

Momotaro Park in Kurisu, Inuyama, Aichi, is one of the claimed birthplaces of the Momotaro legend. About twenty colourful concrete statues by the sculptor Asano Shoun retell the tale from the peach to the ogre-slaying, alongside a striking unpainted white torii and the neighbouring Momotaro Shrine. The park is free and open around the clock; the Treasure Hall (9:00-17:00, JPY 200 for adults and JPY 100 for children) displays quirky treasures such as the 'peach fossil' of Momotaro's birth, ogre horns and weapons. It is a 20-30 minute signposted walk from Meitetsu Inuyama-Yuen Station and pairs well with Inuyama Castle and Museum Meiji-mura.
