Sakamoto Ryoma Statue

it's not an image.

Original Text

It is just off the streetcar's Shijigai Station. To be honest, I was surprised because I didn't have the image of Ryoma Sakamoto at all in Hakodate. There is also the Sakamoto Ryoma Memorial Hall just across the street. It means that I aimed for a new world, but it was still uncomfortable to have a statue where the person had not come.

I stood near the tram stop in Shijigai. I stopped by in the evening, but still the appearance of taking a commemorative photo of tourists was conspicuous. If it was installed in a place with a little more tourists, it would have attracted more attention.

Ryoma Sakamoto statue of 6 meters high in front of the cross street stop. Ryoma Sakamoto has never been to Hokkaido, but his nephew, Nao Sakamoto, who succeeded the family estate of Ryoma Sakamoto, who was thinking of developing Hokkaido as a measure against the unemployment of samurai after the overthrow of the shogunate, worked at the court in Hakodate. It seems that there is a relationship such as. Tata, Cross Street is the center after the development of Hakodate, and while there are many retro buildings, Ryoma Sakamoto seems to be floating a little.

It seems that it was built in recent years near the tram cross street stop (even those from Hakodate did not know). Ryoma had a dream in Ezo. As you write, there is the Ryoma Memorial Hall across the road. The arms of the statue are really thick. It is unclear why it is built in this place.

There is a statue of Ryoma Sakamoto at the cross street stop of the tram, which stands out. Opposite is the Hokkaido Sakamoto Ryoma Memorial Hall.
