 The statue of a loyal ‘Akita’ dog named Hachiko. According to the famous story, the dog walked to the station with his owner, then went home himself and then returned and waited in front of Shibuya Station each afternoon. The dogs owner passed away while he was at work and never returned but Hachiko continued to go to the station every day for 11 years, waiting for his master to return, until Hachiko also died of old age.
