One Of Tokyo's Biggest Heroes Is In Shibuya

If you ever been to Tokyo to the Shibuya neighborhood where the giant scramble crossing is,

Right in front of the main Shibuya train station entrance you will see a big bronze statue of a dog.

But this dog is not just any ordinary dog, it is in fact Hachiko, who is one of Tokyo's most beloved heroes.

His story is quite remarkable and this video I found does a great job in showing you how he became so loved.

You can watch this video here, it's quite inspiring:

How did you like this video?

Who are the local heroes celebrated from where you're from?

Cheers,

Alec
